It features a 0.27 L water tank for steam use, a vertical steam function for garments and hanging items, and a 2 m cord that allows flexible movement during ironing. The iron’s weight of 1.437 kg and compact size (135×310×160 mm) make it suitable for routine ironing tasks and quick wrinkle removal.

Advantages

The Durilium Airglide soleplate offers low-friction gliding and uniform heat transfer to help achieve consistent results on a variety of textiles. High power (2800 W) supports rapid heat-up and stable temperature maintenance during continuous use. The 0.27 L water tank combined with a vertical steam function enables steaming of hanging garments and fast treatment of creases without requiring a separate steamer. A 2 m cord gives an extended reach from the power outlet, and the iron’s moderate weight contributes to precise handling and control while pressing.

Suitable for

• Everyday home ironing of shirts, trousers and household linens
• Quick steam refresh of hanging garments and curtains using vertical steam
• Users who prefer a compact, reasonably weighted iron for easy handling

How to use

Fill the water tank to the indicated level before using the steam function and select the appropriate temperature setting for the fabric to be ironed. Allow the iron to reach operating temperature; the high power ensures a fast heat-up. For flat ironing, glide the iron smoothly over the fabric using steady pressure appropriate to the material. Use the vertical steam function to refresh hanging garments or to remove creases from curtains and upholstery, holding the iron vertically and applying short steam bursts. Empty the water tank after use if storage is prolonged or if your water is hard to reduce mineral deposit build-up.

Recommendations

To maintain optimal performance, use distilled or demineralized water if local water hardness is high, and follow the manufacturer’s guidance on care and descaling. Match temperature settings to fabric care labels, and allow the soleplate to cool fully before storing to avoid damage to surfaces.
