Question: Does it get hot enough without the steam? I recently purchased a very expensive steam iron that is not hot enough to iron much of anything without using the steam. Some things just don't call for steam. I want to make sure this one will get hot enough to use fusiibles.
Document: I've had the chance to review several irons now and welcomed the chance to  try this one out. I iron at least weekly and have used Rowenta irons for many years. I like stainless soleplates since I can keep them clean with an inexpensive cleaner and there's no risk of scratching. I also like a LOT of steam vents. And I like a heavy enough iron that I don't have to push down hard to get the nice finish I want.
The auto-off feature is pretty responsive, but not enough where the iron will completely shut down, which is nice if you want to come back to ironing after a few minutes.I give this Panasonic high marks as being one of the best irons, I have had the pleasure of owning. I know that inevitably I will have to purchase another, but for the money I would purchase this one again without hesitation. Hope this helps you in your search.
I finally gave up trying to look for the water's level near the Max indicator, and instead emptied out all water from the iron, and filled the iron using the included 10-oz. measuring cup, which features a clear Max-level indicator. After figuring that out, my experience with this iron was superb. This shortcoming is not enough to make me regret my purchase of this steam iron.This iron also features a Vertical Steam option which I haven't tried, yet.
Convenient and fast with simple setting. Make sure to use it with distilled water for the best results. No complaints here and does a great job and never burns. Get's the job done and heats up in seconds a lot faster than any other iron I've owned. Creates tons of steam which you can change the amount. Overall I feel that this is I've had it for a couple years haven't had a problem with it. Great Steam Iron!
)But the problem is that this is an expensive iron and I think that while the 'innards' may be very well made, that for most people it's not going to be a pleasure to use. Here's why:I have one major issue, one "you'd better be careful" issue, and a minor one:Minor: There are only 3 steam settings, and as luck would have it, neither is exactly what I'd like.
BUT Amazon, you will not get this one back! It is a great weight. The shape of the soleplate and the steam vents on it are outstanding. I have had it in use since it arrived back in January...it has been all I craved in a new iron. I hope it will serve me for as long and as faithfully as my previous one. I would definitely recommend this one to anyone who uses their iron a lot.
This iron did not damage silk or linen garments when ironed without using the protective pads.This iron heats up very quickly, which is another welcome change from my old steam iron.
As a matter of fact, I have tried using the bottom point of the soleplate while ironing cuffed pants. The two projected arms that serve as its standing base keep getting in the way, creating unwanted ironing lines. Enclosed literature touts "360 Quick." The iron does effortlessly glide over clothes, but my ironing time has not diminished one bit.The soleplate itself is top-quality, and here may be where it outperforms less expensive models.
This iron's &#34;Jet of steam&#34; button is perfectly positioned near my thumb while using the iron, which makes it very easy to inject steam directly onto very-wrinkled parts of the fabric. It eliminated even very-tough wrinkles from my silk, linen and cotton garments without damaging the fabric. None of the garments I ironed were damaged in any way using this iron's recommended manufacturer's settings.
This is absolutely the best iron I have ever used. It works great and does a great job of ironing your clothes and getting rid or wrinkles. It seems to have alot of steam power and works really well. The water tank is a little small but that is not a problem for me. I like the soleplate and the way it works and it is supposed to be scratchless and I havent had any so far. The iron gets hot enough for me.
Answer: Yes, I ran out of water once and was too lazy to fill up and ironed a linen table cloth. . .so it gets hot enough w/out steam for that. . .
