Ironing can be a very exhaustive and time-consuming task for most people but with the latest technology and burst of innovation, it doesn’t have to be. In a society where presentability is a virtue, most people are now becoming increasingly aware of the importance a garment-safe iron holds for their clothes. With an increase in the purchase of well-fitted and stylish clothes, there also is a huge demand for efficient and aesthetically superior irons that give your favourite outfits a good finish in a matter of minutes!

Since the introduction of steam irons, it has now become extremely convenient to get a perfectly crisp press without any hassle or fuss. So, before we start, let’s brush up on our basics and understand how steam irons work.

The concept is relatively simple; we all know that an iron converts electrical energy into heat energy. In steam irons, electricity is passed through a special coil which gets heated up and transfers all the heat to the iron’s soleplate. When completely hot, water from the water tank drips onto the plate to produce steam. This steam is then projected outwards which softens the fibers of the fabric to give you a perfect finish.

Now that you know how a steam iron works, here are the top 5 benefits of investing in a steam iron, read on!

1. Professional Look

A steam iron is the best way to give your clothes a professionally pressed look and feel from the comfort of your home. The steam from the iron moistens the fibers of your clothes and makes them easier to press. Not only this, but the steam also helps keep the fibers in place for a longer duration. This ensures that your clothes look sharp throughout the day.

2. Time-efficient

A steam iron is an excellent alternative for people on the go who don’t have a lot of time to spare to iron their clothes. The steam from the iron helps smoothen even the toughest, most stubborn wrinkles in the shortest amount of time. This enables you to save on those precious moments in the morning when you are running late!

3. Fabric Compatibility

Every fabric has different requirements. A steam iron is an especially handy appliance to have when you have a lot of different types of fabrics to press. For example, Crompton’s Pyro Steam Iron comes with variable temperature control with 6 Fabric settings which give you customized heating options for all your clothes.

4. Safe to use

As compared to its alternatives that require constant supervision, a steam iron is a relatively more reliable option. With the introduction of new models that come equipped with automatic shut-off options, steam irons have become a trusted appliance in Indian households across the country. Reduced risk, many benefits!

5. Durability

A steam iron due to its easy maintenance and efficient use have become a popular choice for most people. It requires only a wipe down with a wet cloth and the practice of emptying the water tank after every use to make sure that this appliance maintains its effectiveness over the years. Some products like Crompton’s Pyro also come with an auto self-cleaning function which only adds to the convenience of the steam iron.
