Bought this iron over a year ago and it's given excellent service. I have to replace it now because brown gunge is coming out of the base and staining the clothes. This is because we did not use distilled water, just descaled tap water. The brown is iron deposits in the water so make sure you use proper distilled water at all times as I will in future.

The worst iron I ever used. Ran out of water too quickly. Took far too long to heat up and took far too long to heat up after refilling. Eventually after 6 months it started leaking water everywhere. Can't believe Philips produced such a bad product. Got my money back and am now buying a Tefal. Had one before and it was a far superior product. (read more)

A large water tank that can be refilled while in use. I honestly am so impressed with this appliance that I would recommend it to anyone. It irons creases out thoroughly and with virtually nothing more than a simple glide over the garment whilst applying steam. The only thing I can find in way of bad... (read more)

I hate ironing. I never iron anything. I got one of these Philips GC7220 and it was like an ironing sensation! I was looking for things to iron, socks, pants, anything, I did it.
This iron is bliss. It's like the iron you have waited for all your adult life. It is so powerful, there is no effort involved in using it whatsoever. Everything seems to take seconds and looks brilliant.I love that the steam goes right to the point of the iron. Also, because the steam is so constant you don't get...
