About The Product
The Phillips EasySpeed 1440 Watt Steam Iron was designed to let speed up the chore of ironing and enjoy life. The iron features an easy fill tank that expedites the filling and emptying of water. The iron can easily remove wrinkles on all sorts of fabrics. The water tank holds up to 180 ml of water, enough to allow you iron numerous articles of clothing before having to refill the tank.
Features:

- Finished soleplate
- Easy and super fast emptying of the water tank
- Warranty: 2 years on product
- Power: 1440 watts; Operating voltage: 240 volts
Please wait for some time for the iron to heat up. Only then you can use the steam function effectively. If the iron is not heated enough and steam function is used, it will lead to water leakage.
What Customers Say

Because it isn’t very heavy, customers have said that they are able to iron much longer without getting fatigued. Customers have also said that they appreciate the 5amp plug because the iron can be used anywhere. Customers like how quickly the iron heats up, allowing them to begin ironing much sooner and get the chore finished much quicker.

This happened in less than two months after purchasing. Other customers said the temperature control on their device didn’t work and their clothing became burnt. Other customers said that though the iron claims to have a non-stick plate, they have experienced their clothing did stick and get burnt.
Our Recommendation
When looking at the features of the product and the overall approval rating of the iron, we recommend the iron, but with some hesitation.
While the majority of customers didn’t have a problem with their iron, the 31% who did had valid claims. We recommend that if you do purchase this iron, be wary of the temperature control so your clothing doesn’t burn.
