All-in-One Ironing Solution 6000 Series, Multi-angle board, OptimalTEMP technology, 1800W, convenient foot buttons, Kills 99.9% of bacteria and dust mites*

I purchased the Philips PerfectCare Compact Steam Generator Iron, and I can honestly say it has transformed my ironing experience. From the very first use, I was impressed by how powerful yet easy to handle it is. The 1.5L water tank is a game-changer—it means I can iron for a long time without constantly refilling, which saves so much time. The steam output is consistent and strong, making even the toughest creases disappear effortlessly. I love that it uses OptimalTEMP technology, so I never have to worry about adjusting the temperature or burning fabrics. It’s safe for all materials, which gives me peace of mind. Another feature I appreciate is the energy-saving mode. It delivers excellent results while using less power, which is great for both my electricity bill and the environment. Despite being a steam generator iron, it’s surprisingly compact and lightweight, making it easy to store and move around. Overall, this iron combines convenience, efficiency, and safety in one sleek design. Ironing used to feel like a chore, but now it’s quick and satisfying. If you want an iron that delivers professional results at home, this is the one!

I have been a user of steam generator irons for over a decade now. While this was on offer, I decided to upgrade my existing Philips HI5914 which had been good, but found wanting in a few areas. Thankfully, this has been an immediate step up and is well worth the money. The first thing that impressed me about this sleek and attractive unit was the fact that it had a lock button to hold it in place while it was on the base - this might not seem like much, but it's such a clever idea for storage and carrying. The power steam cable also wraps neatly under the unit, so it take up much less room than previous models I have had. I liked the non-stick base - it looks like it will keep clean longer than others I've owned. I would recommending de-ionised or distilled water immediately if you are in a hard water area; this model has an anti-calcium function, but I've found that my last model quickly clogged and spat despite having the same thing. The unit itself is light and, thanks to PerfectCare system, doesn't need a temperature control. This was a real winner - I was able to iron from denim to silk immediately! It saved much waiting for the temperature to change or those moments that you forget you have it on a high setting and then accidentally iron your wife's silk blouse...I tested this model out by leaving it on the ironing board and it does exactly what it claims - no burns! Terrific bit of technology. The steam pressure is very impressive, more than adequate for most home uses (I have a handheld steamer for garments so I don't require vertical steam). In summary, I'm delighted with this machine and it runs so smoothly when you use deionised water from the get-go.

Having used a competitor for a number of years with a much more powerful output which also has smart temperature control, I could not justify nearly £400 on an iron! So I opted for this Phillips perfect care and I have been pleasantly surprised at how much lighter and smaller it is against the previous iron and that’s the whole unit the actual iron plate is only a few mm smaller, after using for the first time gives as good a result than the more powerful one. Glides through creases, and I am happy with the results. The only negative is the cord does not wind automatically into the machine but it has a handy tie- can’t have everything I guess. Overall good iron for the money.

ITS WHERE IT BELONGS - IN THE BIN Last Repair Update. It has broken again, no steam and hardly getting hot. Total waste of money. AMazon chat promised full refund so bought another iron and 2 days later they emailed and said no refund deal with Phillips. Very poor service. REPAIR UPDATE First time i have ever had to use Amazon's repair service - and i am mightily impressed to say the least. Was issued with the return label and I took the iron to the post office afternoon of 15th August. It was delivered to the repairers on the 19th and i received a text saying it had been repaired and would be returned on the 20th August. Received the iron back in full working order on the 21st August. Now that is a service!! There was a works sheet in the box saying the hose was blocked and it had been replaced. Spent 2 hours ironing in the evening last night (21st) and the iron was back to its good old working order - just like my original review. Well impressed. UPDATE August 24 and the steam function stopped working. Have just sent it back for repair / replace so will see how this pans out. Will update review again when i get either a repaired or new iron. I will be able to review the repairs process as i have never had to use this facility before. I am impressed with the lightweight feel of the whole iron and tank, and the lockable feature for when moving about with it. I burnt myself a couple of times with my previous iron when it fell of the base when i was putting it away. The electrical lead could be a bit longer, but the hose is more than long enough. Also like the clear reservoir and large snout for filling it. Its very easy to use, i've just got to get used to how it feels as its different to what i've been used to for the last 5 years or so. Maybe its because i've only used it a couple of times, but it just feels like there is a lag between pressing for the steam and it actually coming through. Same for the turbo boost. I will have to update my review after a months use to see how i am getting on with it. But have just done 1/2 dozen work shirts and a load of t-shirts and trousers, all in good time and with no issues.

Lightweight and easy to use but sadly it doesn’t last. 5 months in and it spits water ALL the time and leaks from the steam holes. I’ve tried everything and obviously can’t return it anymore, so into the bin it goes :(

Its very basic , like other irons you cannot adjust antthing

Product arrived with UK plug with no mention on website so returned it.

I bought this for my sister and my mom and definitely will recommend for everyone who needs a good compact and budget steamer.

It works well as expected and as described

Ich konnte dieses Bügeleisen nicht einmal ausprobieren, da es mit einem englischen Stecker versehen war. Eine Frechheit, so etwas in Deutschland auszuliefern. Daher eigentlich nur 0 Sterne!!!!
