Tronic Heavy Duty Dry Iron, 1200W, Ceramic Soleplate

Our review

The Tronic Heavy Duty Dry Iron is a straightforward pressing tool built around a 1200W element and an aluminium body, with a non-stick ceramic soleplate that the maker says glides smoothly across all fabric types. Because it is a dry iron, there is no steam function and no water tank to fill or descale, which suits people who prefer pressing with a sprinkle of water or a damp cloth, or who mainly iron cotton, linen and other fabrics that take heat well. It is a reasonable pick for a household doing regular laundry, a tailor's assistant, or anyone replacing a basic iron without wanting extra controls. Before buying, check the plug type and voltage suit your socket, confirm the soleplate size and cord length meet your ironing board setup, and think about weight, since a heavier iron presses well but tires the wrist. Compare it with steam irons if you iron delicate synthetics often, and with lighter travel models if storage space is tight. Available on Sokonia.
