IronsExpert is an independent UK buying guide for everything to do with ironing: steam irons, steam generator irons, cordless and travel irons, handheld and upright garment steamers, ironing boards and covers. We have been publishing since 2018.
What we do
Choosing an iron should take minutes, not hours. There are hundreds of near-identical models, and the numbers on the box (watts, grams per minute, bar) don’t tell you which one will leave your shirts crease-free, stop spitting after a month or survive hard water. We do the comparison work for you and explain it in plain English:
- Best steam irons in the UK: our main, regularly updated buying guide.
- Best steam generator irons for big ironing piles.
- Cordless irons and clothes steamers for quick touch-ups.
- Ironing boards and covers.
- Brand guides for Tefal, Philips, Morphy Richards, Russell Hobbs, Rowenta, Braun and Bosch.
- Practical guides such as steam generator vs steam iron and how to clean a sticky soleplate.
How we choose products
We compare specifications, independent test results, expert reviews and large samples of verified UK owner reviews, and we look hard for recurring faults. Read the full method on How we research.
Independence
We are not owned by, or paid by, any appliance brand. We earn a small commission from Amazon when readers buy through our links, which keeps the site free. That commission is the same whichever iron you choose, so we have no reason to push one model over another. See our disclosure.
