INTRODUCTION 

 

The Ideal Temp Steam Iron offers you an innovative way to iron garments. We all know the 

fuss with traditional irons: choosing the right temperature for tough and delicate fabrics, 

waiting for the iron to warm up and cool down to avoid the risk of damaging clothes with 

too hot an iron. Those hassles are things of the past with the Ideal Temp Steam Iron. 

 

The key to effective wrinkle removal is the steam.  Historically, wrinkle removal was done 

with a very hot soleplate, then steam was added to enhance heat transfer and we could 

iron much faster.  To get ideal steam, the soleplate temperature needs to be just above the 

steam temperature.  In the past, a large amount of steam at this ideal temperature would 

have led to water leakage. We have developed a special soleplate design that generates a 

consistent output of moisture-rich steam that penetrates deep into the fabric for fast ironing 

with no risk of water leakage. 

 

Ironing is now made really simple!  No temperature adjustment, no scorching, no waiting 

for the iron to heat up or cool down.  Ironing takes less time, no matter who does it. Iron all 

types of ironable fabrics, in any order, without the need to adjust any temperature settings. 

With this Ideal Temp technology, every single garment can be ironed effectively and safely.
