Polti La Vaporella XT100C, Steam Generator Iron with Boiler, 7.5 bar, no Maintenance, 10 Year Warranty on the Boiler Against limescale Attacks*, Unlimited Autonomy, steam Pulse 500g

Having bought another wellknown brand of steam generator iron which packed up after just 10 months, did some research into other brands and models and came across the Polti La Vaporella XT90C, Steam Generator Iron. This is in a whole different league in terms of quality and steam output - 7 bar is really powerful and ironing is so much easier with the Polti. The actual iron is very lightweight and glides beautifully. The main unit is relatively large but is portable, however the chord from the unit to the iron is very long so no issues there. This iron comes with a 10 year manufacturers guarantee and I suppose the reason they offer this is because the quality is so good. I have no idea if this iron will last that long but it's good to know there is a long guarantee to fall back on should it go wrong before then.

This is a great iron, yes it’s expensive but I feel easy use and professional results are worth the price. I would 100% recommend this iron and the customer service is excellent. I bought my iron May 2019 and it recently had a problem. I rang the company and was told they’d pick up iron from my house in a few days. I received iron back like new a few short days later. No fuss, no pleading with them to repair the crack in the iron, etc, etc, no awkward questions just prompt, helpful customer service. I’m very impressed with the company.

I bought this in 2021. It was amazing. Very strong steam power lightweight overall. The problem is that the steam hundle doesn't work anymore and you cant find official Polti center in UK. So for now I will go back to steam iron cause I am not willing to give the same money for this.

Lasted less than 4 months of infrequent use. Base unit suddenly started leaking alot of water and failing to generate steam. Wasnt all that impressed with product prior to this. Water tank is fairly small. Power cord isnt quite as long as id like and there's no way to stand the iron part up on its back. It can only sit hot plate facing down on the board. Fair to say I would not recommend. I have returned it and ordered a tefal to replace. Had no significant issues with the tefal steam generator I previously owned, other than longevity (lasted just over 2 years). Hoping new one will last longer as it is superior to the polti one.

so far so good, effective.

Absolutely amazing water capacity amazing ! Great temperature control steam output is amazing glides through ironing light iron , highly recommend amazing 🤩

This steam generator iron produces a strong stream of steam. Glides through any items that require ironing. Unfortunately the steam generator broke on the second use. Tried to get a replacement but Amazon had sold out. The price elsewhere was £349.00. Good iron but for a Polti - the generator broke too easily. Disappointed in the reliability. I expected much more.

I think this iron is great! Reading some of the other reviews it seems that you can take the 10 year cover with a pinch of salt, that’s what I will be doing. I picked this up for under £250 and having used it a few times I can say it really is worth the money. Ironing my shirts is a breeze and now takes half the one it did before. My only gripe is that the power cord for the wall to the iron is not long enough, it feels like Polti know this because they have a special pullout tray you can use to bring the actual iron closer. So the inventiveness of the solution in my mind means this is a 5 star product! Now let’s see if it stands the test of time!
