Good Points
A steam generator iron makes light work of a tedious chore.
Bad Points
Unreliable electronics and short 12 month warranty make this a poor choice in my opinion.
General Comments
I purchased the Tefal Express 18 months ago - it packed up 3 weeks after the 12 month warranty ran out. Cost £35 for repair. Four months later it packed up again - disgusted, I consigned it to the bin.
Fortunately I spotted a replacement in my local LIDL store - appears to be a rebadged Polti steam generator iron for only £48!. This is every bit as good as the Tefal and in some ways better - the handset is far superior and it came with a three year warranty.
