Irons

Welcome to Electrolux Irons Product Page

Irons are an essential household appliance, keeping clothes wrinkle-free and polished—from everyday outfits to special occasion wear. With fast heating and smooth gliding, a quality iron delivers crisp results in minutes, adding convenience and confidence to your daily routine.

Types of Irons

There are two main iron types, each suited for different needs:

Dry irons are simple, lightweight, and perfect for everyday use. With a flat, heated soleplate and no steam function, they are effective on fabrics that can withstand higher temperatures and do not require additional moisture, such as silk or polyester.

Steam irons use built-in steam vents to soften fabric and smooth out wrinkles more efficiently. They’re versatile and work well on a wide range of materials including cotton and linen. Steam irons are ideal for users who want faster results and more flexibility across different garment types.

How Much Power Does an Iron Need?

The power of an iron, measured in watts, directly affects its performance:

• Higher wattage irons (1800W and above): Heat up quickly and deliver stronger steam output, ideal for heavy-duty ironing or frequent use. They handle thick fabrics and stubborn wrinkles with ease.
• Lower wattage irons (1200W–1600W): More energy-efficient and perfect for occasional or light ironing. Suitable for smaller households or users looking to save electricity.

When choosing the right power level, consider how often you iron and your energy usage preferences to strike the perfect balance between performance and efficiency.

Features to Look for When Buying a New Iron

Before buying a new iron, it’s important to consider both your ironing habits and the types of fabrics you work with.

Match iron functions to your needs:

• Quick touch-ups: Choose a lightweight iron with fast heat-up time.
• Delicate fabrics: Look for adjustable temperature settings and a precision tip for careful control.
• Heavy-duty ironing: Opt for high steam output and powerful wattage to tackle stubborn wrinkles with ease.

Consider fabric types:

• Cotton & linen: Require higher temperature settings and a steam boost function.
• Silk & delicate fabrics: Work best with lower heat settings and a ceramic-coated soleplate to protect the fabric.
