    Overview

    Achieve incredible ironing results and long-lasting performance with the Tefal Smart Protect Steam Iron. Swiftly removing wrinkles and creases from your fabrics, the Smart Protect supplies up to 40 grams of steam per minute for high-efficiency ironing. For stubborn wrinkles, activate the steam boost to deliver up to 145 grams of steam per minute to deeply permeate fabrics.

    Efficiently removing stubborn creases and wrinkles, the Smart Protect diffuses steam from the centre, tip, and sides of the soleplate. Equipped with a 270 millilitre water tank, you’ll be able to complete more ironing before needing to refill. With the smart auto-off, the Smart Protect will turn off after eight minutes of inactivity if left on the heel or five minutes if left on the soleplate/side.
    Durilium Autoclean Soleplate

    The soleplate is constructed from enamelled ceramic with an additional layer of palladium to aid gliding across all your fabrics. When the soleplate gets hot, oxidation occurs releasing any accumulated organic fibres when steam is released.

    Smart Technology

    Providing one combination of temperature and steam, this iron achieves great ironing results on all types of fabric, without burning your garments.

    Precision Tip

    The triangular zone at the tip of the iron allows you to precisely iron hard-to-reach areas, such as collars and seams.

    Anti-Drip Function

    Whether you're ironing at high or low temperatures, this iron has been designed to prevent water stains and leakage while in use.

    Concerned
    I am concerned that the iron which I received may not have been brand new? Why? It didn’t come in the normal plastic bag, it has a ‘white’ discharge like a used iron may have due to the water calcification and the iron continuously ‘sticks’. Not a happy customer. Think that I have been ripped off on this one.

    mmmmm ok
    have had this iron for a couple of months....dry iron is non existent, it doesnt work at all. The steam is great and works well at temperature.

    Can’t set temperature
    This only has one temperature, so you can only use it on cotton and linen.
