"I have been using the iron of this brand for several months already. Pleased with the optimum weight - it's not heavy and not light, designed for good ironing of any fabric. The design is beautiful. The soleplate retains its original shine perfectly. But the steam sometimes comes out a little weak. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the number of holes is smaller than in other models of this brand.
