Every person in the house should have such a household appliance as an iron. With the help of an iron, people smooth things so that they are not crumpled. After all, when things are smoothed, they look much better and neater than when they are crumpled.
Earlier, irons were very simple, without any additional functions, except for heating the surface that is being ironed. At the same time, they were not safe, since if you did not distract yourself for a long time, the iron could burn from the strong heat. But since technologies do not stand still, but constantly develop and improve, they began to produce more convenient and safe irons.
So how to choose hausmark iron among the huge number of products on the market? To do this, you need to determine what type of laundry will be ironed more often: cotton or delicate fabrics. If it is made of delicate fabrics, then the iron should have a special mode in which the heating will not be strong. But such an iron is more expensive than a simple one. It is also necessary to determine what functions are necessary. For example, so that when ironing clothes, steam is supplied without pressing the buttons, or so that while waiting, while the iron is standing on a special platform, its sole and holes for steam release are cleaned. If you need to iron small items or small areas on the fabric, then in this case it is desirable to have an iron that has holes for the release of steam not only on the entire surface of the sole, but also separately in the toe part. In such irons, the nose part will be ironed much better than in simple ones.
In addition to the main functions, the iron may have various additional functions. They are different, depending on the model. There is a self-cleaning function. This function is convenient when the iron is often used, but at the same time there is not always enough time to clean it.
It is also worth studying the hole for the water inlet. There are buried and open ones. The most convenient is the closed type, since in any position of the iron, the water in it will not spill out, but if a lot of water is poured, then it is difficult to pour it out of the iron with a closing hole for the inlet.
Irons also differ in the type of handle. They are open (when the back or front part of the handle is not connected to the base of the iron) and closed (when both sides of the handle are connected to the base of the iron). Manufacturers make different types of handles, either because they are more beautiful in design, or because of the design of the iron. In some irons, there is a power cord in the rear part, and if the handle of the iron is one with the base, the cord will be arranged in such a way that when it is placed in standby mode (on the back), the power cord will prevent it from standing stably.
Taking into account the current rhythm of life, iron manufacturers have added the "linen protection" function. With this function, the use of the iron becomes even safer. If you leave the iron turned on on the surface of the things that need to be ironed, the iron will turn itself off after 2-3 seconds, thus preventing things from getting damaged (burning).
There are such places on things where it is difficult to iron even with steam. In this case, it is necessary to moisten this area a little. For this, there is a special hole in the iron through which water is sprayed from the iron onto the surface of the fabric. When choosing an iron, it is worth studying where this spray hole is located and where it is directed.
For ease of choice, you can go to the website of a store that sells household appliances and, according to the specified parameters, view the presented models, evaluate their design, and see what parameters they have.
It is worth choosing from well-known manufacturers, as they give longer guarantees and have more service centers in different cities. They also have a wider selection of products on the market.
Having selected several models, you can go to the store to examine the product you like in more detail. Having picked up a certain model, you can understand how convenient it is to use, whether the handle is comfortable in the hand, whether it is not heavy. If the iron is heavy, then the hand will get very tired while ironing things. And if the handle of the iron does not lie comfortably in the hand, then after each use of the iron, the hand may hurt.
After examining the product from all sides, trying to hold it in your hands to determine whether it will be convenient to use it or not, after making sure that it is exactly the iron that fits, you can go to the checkout to pay for the purchase. When paying, it is necessary to ask that the warranty card be completely filled out, otherwise the warranty will not be valid and the service center will not accept the product for repair within the warranty period.
