    Overview

    Built to deliver powerful and efficient ironing results with each use, the Philips PowerLife Steam Iron is an affordable and reliable model for all your crease-removal needs. With a consistent steam output of up to 45 grams per minute powered by a 2400 watt element, the PowerLife will smooth out pesky wrinkles in your fabrics. Melt away the most stubborn creases with the steam boost, delivering up to 180 grams of steam permeating deeper into your fabric.

    With a built-in calc-clean slider, this iron benefits from a built-in cleaning function to remove limescale and ensure it can continue to function at its best. The safety auto-off feature will turn off the iron after eight minutes of inactivity if left on the heelrest or thirty seconds if on the soleplate.
    Vertical steaming for hanging fabrics

    The vertical steam function lets you refresh garments right on the hanger and remove creases from curtains as they hang. No ironing board required.

    Scratch resistant SteamGlide soleplate provides good gliding

    Our special SteamGlide soleplate smoothly glides over any fabric. It's also non-stick, scratch-resistant and easy to clean.

    Built-in calc-clean slider, long-lasting steam performance

    This iron operates with ordinary tap water. Calc-clean is a built-in cleaning function to remove calcium buildup, or limescale, and maintain peak performance.

    Automatic shut-off when iron is left unattended

    The iron shuts itself off if you leave it standing still. On its heel rest, it will automatically switch off in 8 minutes. Lying flat, it shuts down after 30 seconds motionless.

    Below average
    Very expensive Iron with very little to offer, too much plastic, cannot see to fill water tank due to tint of plastic, gone back to a 3m cord (too long, trip hazard). After 33 years of Philips Iron's and no other make, this is the worst it is expensive cheap tack.

    good and affordable
    Extremely happy with my purchase - easy to manage and clean. The cord is a bit short, but works for my set up at the moment - can always use a power extension if more length is needed.

    This product is brilliant
    I absolutely detest ironing but since purchasing this iron I have never ironed so much and actually enjoy doing it. Irons effortlessly and the steam is brilliant. Overall this is designed perfectly and isn’t too heavy, the extra long cable is an added bonus. Definitely recommend :)
