Irritating noise
After noting all the 5 star reviews I opted for the Philips Azur. On arrival my wife was keen to try it out and filled the iron with distilled water using the small container provided. This was somewhat messy as the water hole is quite small but after setting the steam to full, away she went. However, every time she placed the iron upright it made a really annoying `crackling' sound, which sounded like residual water being boiling on the heating element inside the iron. I contacted Philips who said it was a trait of the iron and not a fault !! I was very disappointed and have now set about returning the iron. If you enjoy Chinese torture and the constant sound of `Rice Crispies' then give it go. If not, then I suggest you select a different make.

Peace of mind for the forgetful.....
I purchased this iron from amazon back in June 2006.

The basics of why I think this iron is a great product are:-

1) the autoshut off feature - no more panicking after having left the house as to whether you've left the iron on!
2) the light indicator which indicates when the iron is switched on, or on autoshut off
3) good water capacity
4) Longer-than-usual lead length
5) Last but not least, performance in terms of getting creases out of clothes is superb.

It is a well-designed, non-stress inducing appliance. When my current iron breaks down due to old age I won't bother investigating other irons for purchase - I'll be buying another of these assuming still available.

Normally after using an appliance for a number of years, I fancy a change, so I can think of no better compliment to pay this product.

Fantastico!
Having just returned from a family holiday I had 6 loads of washing to iron so to make the job a little more bearable I "treated myself" to a new iron. Why did I not buy this sooner??
It's sleek, has a long cord, I love the blue light and it is effortless. I've never enjoyed ironing so much. I used to dread doing shirts before but with this, they're a breeze.
Buy it, it's fantastic.

Rolls Royce of Irons
This is the Rolls Royce of Irons or should I say the Ferrari with it's sleek black body and powerful action. I have never enjoyed ironing so much before, now my clothes look super ironed. The heat resistant footplate is a really neat addition.
