Not sure of the expiry date on this one, but get in quick - very hard to go past an iron of this calibre at this price. Saw this deal in store, but seems to be available online as well.

The store ticket mentioned that there would be no rainchecks at this price, so if you're after a decent iron, best jump on this deal while it's still around.

There are plenty of positive reviews around the place for this particular model, but here are a couple of good places to start if you're in need of a little convincing.

    Cheapest available as far as I can tell.
    I like Philips irons, but personally I can't tell much difference between their low/mid-range models and their more expensive ones like this one. Except the more expensive ones tend to be somewhat unnecessarily heavy in my opinion.

    • Not as heavy as their Tefal counterparts though…

  • The higher model - GC4865 is $79 at JB Hi-Fi Home and HN. Not sure how it goes in comparison or if it's worth the extra though?

    GC4410 - http://www.philips.com.au/c/irons/azur-steam-iron-with-steam…

    Only real difference I can see apart from design is 200g steam boost vs 150g.

  • I believe this iron also doesnt have safety auto off

  • Excuse my ignorance* - but is it really worth an extra $45 vs. $14 one basic one?

    An iron is an iron no?

      An iron is an iron no?

      Fair question. My experience is no. If you do a bit of ironing then a more expensive iron usually takes the frustration out of the job. Less chance of water leaks, gets creases out easier, better distribution of steam etc. Just gets the job done better and quicker.

      Not to say you won't ever find a cheap one with good qualities.

        As above plus, plates tend to glide easier, don't stick and burn, no calcium deposits left behind.
        Edit: and a good ironing board with one of those heat reflective covers makes an even bigger difference!

        • a good ironing board with one of those heat reflective covers makes an even bigger difference!

          don't know about heat reflective but good felt also helps :)

          Sensational idea. First used one in the UK for a year or so, so when we got back to Oz I had to grab one! I'll try look up what they are / what they're called here!

          Edit: This is the kind of thing I was talking about! Ironing board cover

        • thanks - interesting but replace its foam with felt :)

      Snoop is right. The ironing board is very important.
      It all depends how much ironing you do, how much you value your time, and what your clothes are worth. A good iron on a good (~$70) board gets the job done in half the time with better results and less damage to clothes.
      A cheap iron on a bad board will take longer, be more frustrating, may do a bad job and may leave "shine marks" or otherwise damage your (possibly expensive) clothing. $59 really isn't that much if you spend, say, 52 hours ironing a year.

      Ironing is bad enough at the best of times. Having to re-iron something because the useless iron you are using doesn't get the wrinkles out is even worse. Happy to pay a bit extra for a better iron, it is not a frivolous indulgence purchase like a video game, meal or holiday but a necessity. If a better iron saved me 15 mins a week over the course of a year it would have paid for itself several times over.

      • my logic exactly :)
