While this iron continues to function, it works very well and does a good job. However, this particular model suffers from overheating problems, if it has not had the benefit of the replacement reduced power soleplate kit. This kit takes the original rating of 2600W down to 2300W, which should alleviate the overheating problems. I would not recommend buying an unmodified version of this iron. Lastly, as one of its key claims to fame is its high power rating, I cannot help but wonder what merits the modified iron (reduced power) has left to claim.

Dave Huguenot's Response to spurwayw's Review

Written on: 27/07/2010

I found this review very helpful because.... Since purchasing the Bosch Sensixx comfort 2600W max,the thermal fuse has blown twice, plus have had to have a replacement thermostat, which had caused the iron to over heat and unfortunately scorched a good shirt.
<br/>Now the thermal fuse as blown for the third time, but Bosch will not sell the part, instead you have to buy a package, The thermostat (temperature regulator) and Thermal fuse and a reduced power (2300W) sole plate.
