ironing board arrived with a wobble

I ordered the freestanding ironing board with the cover you can take off for washing, and it came well packed and on time. The leg lock was a bit stiff to start with and took me a while to get the hang of, though it's loosened up now. Customer service were polite when I rang about it, but it did take a few days to get a call back. Still, I'm pleased with it.

cheaper than the other sites

I compared a few sites before buying the steam generator, and this one came out cheapest once I'd added postage. The iron itself does what I need, with plenty of steam for my husband's work shirts. Delivery was quick and I didn't have to pay extra for a faster option.

The boiler is the bit that stood out

The boiler heats up quickly and the steam is powerful enough for thick cotton. I've been ironing for a long time and I know what a good iron feels like. This one has a nice balance in the hand and the soleplate slides without catching.

the steam output is the real difference

The first thing I noticed was how much steam the boiler puts out when I hold the trigger down, far more than my old iron managed on its best setting. I've used a few of these now and this one heats up faster than the rest. The soleplate glides well on silk too, which is a relief because I have a lot of blouses.

We have been customers for years

We have been buying from this company for many years, mostly ironing boards and the odd replacement cover. I needed a cover for my old board because the fabric had worn thin on the top. The new one went on easily and the fit is just right, and it arrived quickly as always.

first steam iron order

Bought the cordless steam generator iron from them last month and it arrived in two days, which I didn't expect. Took it out of the box and it heated up quick and the steam is proper strong. Ironing my work shirts has gone from a chore to something I don't mind doing, and the checkout was simple too.

Does the job well

It's a good iron and I'd say go for it. The steam is strong, it heats up in a minute, and the cord is long enough to reach the socket without a stretch. The price was fair compared to the other places I checked and it came the next day.

fair price for what you get

Not the cheapest out there but the price is fair for the steam output and build quality. The iron came with a decent cord and works fine on my cotton shirts. I'd just expected the tank to be bigger for the money.

first time ordering and fine so far

Ordered a steam iron for my daughter's flat and the price was lower than the shop, which is why I went with them. Delivery took about a week though, a bit longer than the site said.

Better than my old ironing board

I was going to buy a basic ironing board from the big department store but a friend said to try this site. The board is much wider than my old one and the cover stays put without slipping off every five minutes. Delivery was quick and the box came with everything I needed, so I'm very happy with it and I'd order from them again.

The steam is what sold me

I looked at three different irons before choosing this one, and the steam output was the thing that made the difference. The others felt weak once the heat built up. It's pricier than a few of the rivals but the steam is noticeably better, and the water tank is easy to refill without spilling.

Needed something for the spare room

We had a sofa bed that was sagging so we needed a proper ironing board that didn't take up loads of room. I looked at a few places and kept coming back to this one because the board folds flat against the wall. It's a bit dearer than the cheap ones on the high street but it's sturdy and the cover is easy to pull on and off.

Good prices and quick to order

Would use again, the prices are better than the high street and the site was easy to use on my phone. Booked a replacement cover in about two minutes while waiting for the kettle. Delivery was fine, arrived in three days and tracking worked. Nothing to fault really, just wish the cover came in more colours.

needed a new iron for my flat

My old iron packed up after a few years and I needed something reliable before starting a new job. The site was easy to use and I found a steam iron that suited my budget. The only slight niggle is that the delivery took a couple of days longer than the site said it would.

ironing board arrived in good order

I ordered the ironing board with the adjustable height, which I wanted because my back isn't what it was. It arrived well packed and the legs locked firmly into place straight away. The height settings are clear and easy to read, and the board is sturdy enough to lean on while I finish a shirt.

Got it for less than the shop

Got the steam iron here and I'm glad I did, because the price is lower than the shop round the corner. Took about a week to arrive, which was fine but a bit longer than I'd hoped. It's a decent iron and I've used it a few times now without any fuss.

Cheaper than the shop option

I'd been looking at a similar generator iron in a big shop and this one came in noticeably cheaper once delivery was added. It does the same job as the shop version as far as I can tell, with a similar steam output and an easy fill tank. The only thing I'd flag is that the cord is a bit short for my ironing spot, so I had to move a socket around.

Iron's good, delivery was slow

Bought the steam iron and it works well, heats up fast and the steam is decent. Delivery took ages though, nearly two weeks when it said a few days. Still happy with the iron itself.

Better than the one I had before

I used to have a cheap iron from a supermarket and it never got hot enough for linen. This one is a huge step up compared to that, with a steady temperature and a strong steam burst. The price was a bit more than a supermarket one but it's clearly built better.

ordering from them for years

My wife and I have been using this company for a good ten years, mostly for replacement parts and the odd iron. We needed a new board cover because the old one had split, and the replacement fitted the same board as before. Ordering was as straightforward as always and it turned up within the week.
