Say Goodbye to Stubborn Wrinkles: How Steam Irons Revolutionised Ironing
Say Goodbye to Stubborn Wrinkles: How Steam Irons Revolutionised Ironing

Ironing is one of those household chores that most of us avoid if we can. It's time-consuming, tedious, and, let's be honest, it's not exactly the most enjoyable task. From the moment you pull out the ironing board and switch on the iron, it can feel like an endless process, especially when you have a huge pile of clothes to get through. 

 

However, with modern steam irons, there's a solution that can make the process faster, more effective, and even enjoyable. In this article, we’re giving the nod to the undeniable value of steam irons as a valuable member of our household.

 

The Evolution of Steam Irons

 

Steam irons have come a long way since the days of traditional ironing. With modern technology and advancements in design, steam irons have become an essential appliance in every household. Steam irons not only offer convenience, but they also provide an excellent finishing touch to your clothes, leaving them wrinkle-free and perfectly pressed. 

 

Older models used to rely solely on heat to iron clothes, which was not always effective, especially when dealing with stubborn wrinkles. However, all of this changed with the advent of the modern steam iron. 

 

Steam is more effective than heat alone because it penetrates the fabric and relaxes the fibres, making it easier to remove creases. The steam also adds moisture to the fabric, which can make it easier to iron.

 

The Benefits of Steam Irons

 

There are numerous benefits to using a steam iron over a traditional iron. First, steam irons are much faster than traditional irons. As we’ve noted, the steam helps to loosen the fibres in the fabric, which makes it easier to remove stubborn wrinkles. This, in turn, reduces the amount of time it takes to iron your clothes, saving you precious time.

 

Steam irons are much gentler on your clothes than traditional irons. The steam adds moisture to the fabric, which also assists in tackling tough creases. 

 

Using Steam Irons on Delicate Fabrics

 

When using a steam iron on delicate fabrics, it is important to use the lowest heat setting possible. Although a lower heat setting could turn off the steam function which may not be ideal. In many cases, when laundering fabrics such as chiffon, silk or even wool, a better option is to steam the wrinkles away gently. These delicate fabrics don’t stand up to the direct heat from an iron very well. What do you do, though, if you don’t have a steamer?

The steam iron also features an anti-drip system, which prevents water from leaking out of the soleplate, ensuring your clothes stay dry while ironing. The self-cleaning function helps to remove any limescale build-up, ensuring the longevity of your iron. And, with multiple steam settings, you can customise the amount of steam to suit different types of fabrics, ensuring you get the perfect finish every time.

Top Tip

 

It's best to use distilled water in a steam iron. Tap water can contain minerals and impurities that can damage the iron and affect the quality of the steam. These minerals can accumulate in the steam vents, causing blockages and reducing the effectiveness of the steam function.
