Great product
Russell Hobbs 22860 Colour Control Pro Steam Iron
Reviewed on Argos
The electronic iron comes with a very good base surface that covers a wide area to reduce the ironing time. The both modes (normal and stream) works excellent ever since I bought before 3 weeks. The heating controls are well designed with digital feedback light to select between modes and there is an additional button for max steaming mode. The nostrils are well placed to spray water at correct spot. But make sure you choose suitable temperature mode for different type of clothes. The power up i.e. heating time is immensely quick and same with cool down period. Heavy iorn than needs no pressure to flatten your clothes ... More

Can't believe how good this iron is for the price I paid. My previous steam generator iron broke and couldn't afford another one, bought this and it's just as good and a lot lighter to use. Very impressed.
Nice iron and good value

I like the electronic colour key for the heat settings, the iron is smooth to guide and easy to use. The only criticism is that the steam isn't consistent despite being on a high setting, but you can just use the steam button instead. All in all for the money it's good.
Brilliant iron.....

Love this iron, I do a lot of sewing so my iron is on for most of the day, but it switches itself off when not moved for a few minutes (about 6 I think) and is quick to come up to temperature as soon as it’s moved. Lots of steam, and all in all great value for money. I would recommend this iron to anyone....
Good performance for an iron

Reviewed by Leagas123 on Argos
I bought this iron after my steam generator broke. I’m always used to steam generators as their performance is usually better than a straightforward iron. I was quite surprised with this iron as it gets creases out quite easily. There are different colours on the iron according to what power you need on your fabrics. I keep it on the red setting for most of my clothes but change it for delicates. Very pleased.

Brilliant!!

I had bought an expensive iron which was awful so I decided to buy one based on customer reviews and this was the top rated iron. It was a lot cheaper than other irons but I decided to go for it based on the reviews. NOT disappointed at all - best iron I have had for a few years. Long cord, does not burn even when set at correct temperature which again is digital and soooo easy to use. I really can not recommend this iron enough - GO FOR IT !!

The colour changing light in the handle makes temperature selection easy. It is well balanced and the large capacity water tank allows longer sessions of steam ironing. Since purchase it has mainly been used for vertical steaming of large curtains and did a great job. The jet steam and spray functions are great for removing more stubborn creases and the buttons are well placed. Veery happy wih this item.
Nice iron which works well

I had to renew our iron because the old one was over 20 years of age! This is a considerable improvement. Nothing is going to make ironing a pleasure but this certainly helps. The only niggles I have is that when it is on 'steam' it uses the water very fast and needs replenishing often. Also the way I grip the handle means that I sometimes alter the iron setting. This may just be me but I do find this quite irritating. Having said that it irons well and was very good value for money
Amazing iron!

My old iron blew the electric as the lead came loose. I decided to purchase this based on reviews. I am not disappointed! It got brought all of my two baskets of ironing including 4 king/double/single duvet covers within 1 and a half hours! I love that it's a rollerball socket into the iron wire so the lead won't come loose! Plus the fact you can set the temperature by colour modes and also the big iron head itself. Very easy and light to use with a good length lead
Iron works really well, looks gr8, streams perfect

Heats up really quickly, in about 40-45 seconds, steam function is excellent delivering plenty of steam so the iron glides on the cloth and does a fabulous job pressing it to a smooth and creaseless finish. Minimal effort needed to use it. Four heat settings, you normally do not need more than these on any conventional iron anyway. It beeps and shows a light at the top when it's switched on (non heat setting), a different coded light for each setting as well.
Irons well but temperature feature is not good

Reviewed by Sabah on Argos
The iron irons very well. Like the colour and it is light weight. The only downside is you have to select “temp”!after turning on the iron as it will not heat up otherwise. Also to make it hotter you need to keep pressing until you get the right colour. Am not sure what temperature is pink. The colours indicate the temperature of the iron
Great iron

The easy to use temperature control is good, however it's a little frustrating having to cycle up through all the options to the top temperature compared to a classic temperature dial. Good weight to the iron and the steam function is very powerful. Overall a good purchase for the price and is decidedly better than my old iron!

I previously bought one for my mum which works great. Even after lots of use, the bottom plate hasn’t rusted unlike some other irons and the auto turn off feature gives you peace of mind. I have just bought myself one. Great iron.

Reviewed by Steph12334 on Argos
Wow what can I say .. I can iron anything from 30-70 items a day , I have used £200 irons and steam presses in the past however this beats them all by far. This iron has reduced my ironing time by half yes HALF, it has different colour options for different materials and heat settings and by the flick of a switch you can go back and forth from dry heat to constant steam. I have in fact purchased another one of these irons as a back up.
Iron heat display feature

Reviewed by TS on Argos
The iron is fab, hence the overall rating, but my grandma who I purchased it for struggled to understand what heat was being represented by the different colours of light strip, as she could not easily distinguish the colours on the colour key which is placed either side of the coloured light strip. Possibly it needs to be brighter colours for those shown on the key but otherwise the product is faultless. Lightweight and easy to handle.
If manual is good why go Digital ?

Reviewed by Roger on Argos
On my other iron it had a dial which you turned to the one,two etc dots and on the dial was written on what fabric you use at the different temperatures. With this iron it has the dots ,colours light up to show you what temperature you are at but not what fabric do you use at that temperature. So then you have to look at the instruction manual ! On the book it says 'Removes the guesswork' with the colour display, does it ! Couldn't the fabric info be placed on the iron to remove the guesswork ?
Well worth it

Being disabled had always found it hard to get an iron I can use comfortably. Though initially heavy when tank full, it is a smart and easy design. Colour coding temperature is excellent and the bleeping sounds assists with chosen temperature reached and when it goes into standby mode.

This is a great iron. The temperature buttons took a bit of getting used to (opposed to a dial) but i’m used to it now. Heats up quick and irons well. The cord is very long which is great. For the price - this is a great buy.

Reviewed by BB on Argos
This glides over the clothes and does a really good job, I have not found it too heavy and I am very pleased with the steam function. What I do find wrong with the iron is the direction of the water spray I find too high and the water does not hit the material but even goes off the end of the ironing board.
