Steam Iron for Clothes with 8’ Retractable Cord, 1700 Watts, 3-Way Auto Shutoff, 400+ Holes, Professional Grade, Temperature Control Dial, Titanium Infused Ceramic Soleplate, Silver (13106)

Love this Iron. No leaking or spitting brown water on my clothes like the Row----brand. And, I never got a full year of use from any of the Row----brand. This iron heats quickly & produces lots of steam. Provides consistent temp. The ceramic sole plate coating performs well. I found it's the only area that wears out after years of lots of heavy use. Self-cleaning works well. I bought previously & lasted 5 + years. Bought again. I will never go back to other brands.

Replaced an iron of may years. Easy turn the know temperature control, long cord, irons well. Used alot in my quilting

I’m so happy with this purchase. I do moderate of ironing. I love percale sheets and pillowcases but they wrinkle therefore I iron. My 20 yr old iron sprung a leak and would no longer steam. This Chi model puts out steam to rival any dragon. Clouds of steam tame even the most stubborn wrinkles into submission quickly and easily. That said, it goes through water quickly so have a pitcher ready. The retractable cord is a nice touch too. The automatic turn off if you leave it face down or just standing. I wish the plate was just a little bigger but all in all it’s a great iron.

This is a review after two years of owning the iron. First picture shows how the iron looked when I first bought it. It's fantastic iron: glides smoothly, no water dripping (problem I had a other high end irons), plenty of steam to remove wrinkle from both clothes and sheets. It worked beautifully with constant use ironing different types of clothes and sheets on a regular basis. The different feature dials are easy to use and the water tank is easy to refill (I only use distilled water). However, after two years, the coating started to wear out - please see attached pictures. There is still plenty of steam and no water dripping but the gliding is definitely impacted and I don't like the look of the missing coating and potential of damage to my clothes. I bought another one since I've tried different Rowenta irons and they leaked water after awhile so I'm sticking to the CHI even if it only lasts for 2 years.

Phenomenal iron, so much steam I love it. It does the job quickly and with precision.

I sampled 2 other irons (Rowenta) before I bought this one. This one ticked all my boxes for weight, retractable cord, and function.

I have ironed every working day since high school. I am 63 years old. This is by far the, the worst iron I have ever used. Initially, very high hopes. Let me detail in the kindest way possible. First and foremost. The steam is pretty good but it should be hooked directly to a water source for that reason. It will iron a cotton shirt ( XL) and a pair of cotton pants ( 40x32, high side) but your tank will be empty and nearly impossible to visualize because of thick red container. If you have knuckles, move onto another iron. As you iron, you unknowingly hit the dial awkwardly placed inside the handle and switch settings. Catastrophic if you’re in a hurry. The ceramic or titanium-whatever, plate that touches your clothing loses its paint surface after 6 months or so. The iron then deposits brown rust stains to your clothing without warning( See photo of rust stains on khakis that were ruined by this CHI iron. I had to throw them out.) Self-clean does not seem to do anything. The absolute worst part of this over-priced iron is the cord! It is nearly impossible to retract without getting burned and serves no purpose. I have to admit, until today and reading description, I forgot it had a retractable cord. I literally use it every day and leave it plugged in. The cord, over time ( well less than a year, however,) becomes a brittle knotted mess that cannot be untangled as you would with a phone cord or vacuum cord, etc. It is a very intense, high anxiety Art to attempt to iron while pulling the cord without unplugging it. Hold your clothing down , hold the cord at least two to three feet away and pull the steaming hot 1700 watt iron with ALL of your might to attempt to detangle just enough to touch iron to ironing surface. This is the most costly iron I have bought. I know I am excessive when it comes to sharp creases and starting my day looking like a United States Marine. You most likely won’t use yours to the extent that I rely on mine. If you need or like to iron like I do, this is not the best option just because it is more expensive. I’m sorry to say, it is just not a good iron. Not at any price. Not even a little bit. The reviews you see are “ out of the box” high expectation reviews as my initial one was. * Purchased October 2024. Thank you for looking.

Meet all expectations

I am glad i picked this one! Looks good. Cord retracts in and out easily. Lava iron quality unique. A little heavy, but works well. No need to press hard, just glide through those wrinkles! Definitely the right Chi to get!

I purchased this iron based on the reviews that I had read. It's definitely more expensive than the Brand that I have been using for years and they were not inexpensive models. What this unit excels at, is the Steam output that it generates, so today I wanted to see how it would perform on some thicker pants that I wear in the winter. I came away extremely impressed, as they would not have looked as good with any of the other models that I have used prior. One negative is the cord length is a few feet shorter than my previous models and because it's retractable, it does not exit at the back of the unit but instead to one side, so a little more inconvenient depending on where your ironing board is in relation to the electrical outlet. I was eager to see how it would perform as it's a recent purchase, so tried it once on my shirts and once on the pants. I have been ironing all my life as the receptionist at a company that I had worked for 50 years ago, told me that my shirts do not look pressed, just freshly coming out of the dryer and she was correct, so now my wife is more than happy to let me iron her garments also. In summary, it's the best unit that I have purchased to this day.

Stopped working after 1month. No heat is coming out and also water leakage problems.

Llego en excelentes condiciones. A mi me ha funcionado muy bien. Yo por lo regular plancho mucha mezclilla gruesa. Y con esta plancha no batallo nada. Es muy comoda y calienta lo necesario. La ropa delicada no la maltrata tampoco.

El cable retráctil es muy cómodo, saca mucho vapor y la cubierta de cerámica hace que se deslice sin ningún esfuerzo, venía de una plancha "sencilla" que me regalaron cuando me independice que me duró 5 años hasta que explotó el cable, en fin si se siente una gran diferencia y estoy muy contento con la compra, le regalaré una a mamá
