Not sure what I was expecting but it's smaller than I thought it would be and more powerful than I expected. I love that it's a 2 in 1. I used the iron function on my sons school shirt without the need of an ironing board because the back is heat proof. The bag is also a storage bag which is brilliant for traveling with. It comes with 3 clip on accessories for different fabrics when using the steamer function. The steamer function is flipped on my a flick of a switch, can manually use it or lock it on. I absolutely love it
