Description

The Philips PerfectCare 8000 Series PSG8160/30 is a powerful steam generator that makes it easy to get rid of large piles of laundry. Thanks to the continuous steam production of 170g/m, the steam burst of 700g/m and the pressure of 8.5 bar, the iron can take care of any ironing task. The steam generator also takes some of the ironing out of your hands thanks to its smart motion sensor.

8,8/10

A recommended investment for everyday ironing.

• The iron moves smoothly over the different fabrics.
• Large water supply, so fewer interventions at the tap.
• Expensive but value for money.

Ironing becomes a piece of cake.

• Irons smoothly and powerfully
• The pressure that the device can handle allows you to glide smoothly over any fabric
• Previous device was broken after 3 years, so just out of warranty

A recommended investment for everyday ironing.

• The iron moves smoothly over the different fabrics.
• Large water supply, so fewer interventions at the tap.
• Possibility to steam on vertical fabrics (without contact).
• Expensive but value for money.

Ironing becomes a more pleasant activity and is done faster, saving you extra time. A real win win...

I absolutely don't like ironing, but this steam iron gives you a next level ironing experience! The ironing flies through!

Disappointing, uncomfortable and pricey.

• Gives a lot of water instead of steam

With prolonged use, clothes become soaking wet, as does the ironing board itself. Always worked with Tefal irons and this machine is a downright disappointment. After 6 months I say goodbye and go back to Tefal.
