Braun UpStyle 2

I have had the opportunity to test this device over the past period. I have always used a cheap version myself and was always skeptical about the performance of a good steam iron. I sometimes saw people placing a very large appliance on the ironing board, which seemed rather inconvenient to me. However, sometimes you have to try something before you can really form an opinion. The device is lightweight and has a separate water supply that you can easily click out and fill. What pleasantly surprised me is that there is a separate small ironing board built in for the iron. So you can simply place the large appliance on a nearby table and then put the special (drip) board with the iron on the ironing board. The cable connecting them is quite long and did not get in the way. The iron itself is very easy to handle, steams well, and heats up in no time. I especially loved the function for ironing over buttons and zippers. I enjoyed ironing shirts this way (because it suddenly became much easier). But T-shirts, trousers, some cardigans, and bedding also worked great. I have to get used to the fact that you cannot literally set the temperature; the device does this itself. I have to draw the honest conclusion that I am very enthusiastic and the ironing was really done faster.

I am very pleased with the Braun Upstyle 2 steam generator. The powerful steam, in particular, makes ironing much easier and faster. I have ironed t-shirts, jeans, shirts, and polo shirts. Wrinkles disappear without me having to go over the same spot multiple times. The soleplate is very smooth, making ironing very easy, even around buttons. The device fits comfortably in the hand and is easy to use. A minor drawback is that the generator is somewhat larger than a standard iron and therefore takes up a bit more space. You also have to get used to the amount of steam, but for me, the speed and the result certainly outweigh that; my laundry comes out nice and smooth.

This iron crossed my path and helps me save time ironing for my family. Especially when ironing bedding, I am finished much sooner now! Getting this iron up and running was very simple. We have hard water here, so we use partially demineralized water. It is really ideal that the water reservoir is separate, so you can easily take it to the tap. What I do find inconvenient is that the cord to the iron is quite short. Because of this, you have to look carefully at where you place the appliance. At first, I found it a bit daunting to iron more delicate fabrics, because you cannot adjust the temperature. But fortunately, that works out perfectly fine.
