Took delivery today of the Russell Hobbs light weight steam iron, if you read the other reviews you wouldn't buy it , I looked beyond that and purchased this iron. The iron arrived in a Russell Hobbs Box, all intact and cable ties, plug prong protectors and totally brand new. No obvious water in the tank, but if there had then I would expect this as they must test these for leaks and steam production also the real give away is the sticker stating may contain some residual water after testing, see picture. The iron was only half filled for this test and duly plugged in to heat up, set to max on the dial and steam setting to Max. The power indicator lit and came up to the set temperature very quickly. I chose a shirt to give it the hardest test possible, a pure linen that was creased from the wash and now bone dry (would normally iron this damp) this was going to be tough. The video is awkward as both hands needed to iron but one holding the camera so not the best view. The iron dealt with the linen like a champ and produced very acceptable results. How people can say it doesn't get hot enough or it looked used .....(I take these with a pinch of salt, read between the lines). Using occasional extra bursts of steam where needed for stubborn creases. Over all the result was very good, over the next couple of weeks I will be giving it further trials on varied shirts , jeans and trousers and update this review then. The iron is well made , soleplate well fitted and finished producing good results to the tested linen shirt. Care will be needed with the water filler cover as excessive force will cause the pivots to break , also the steam selector must be in the center position or it fouls the water flap when opening, just a care item not a deal breaker. The mains cable is only 2m (previous Russell Hobbs iron was 3m) I adequate but slightly too short , standard modern manufacturing cost cutting. Amazon don't give a weight for this iron , most irons are anything from 1.1kg to 1.5kg so I weighed this one 720g that is light, see the pictures. All in all this light weight iron is a winner, with regards to the "alledged used ones with water in" I doubt it , seeing as all electrical items manufactured need to be tested especially ones with water, the giveaway is the sticker actually on the iron water tank and also on the box stating may contain remains of testing water .......need I say more . I will update this review after a few weeks of use but so far well deserved of the 5Stars Very good value at £19.79 ( annoying that the next day its on at £18.99 )

Bought as present. Recipient loves the fact it is lighter than some irons and has an effective smooth ceramic soleplate. Used as a dry iron it gives good results on dry clothes. Being in very hard water area just realised it has self clean option which is great. Love the fact it can be used with vertical steam for curtains / dresses etc. Quick to heat up and also nice and easy to fill water tank. Added bonus is the lovely clear dial with good sized lettering which can be read even without specs, nice one Morphy Richards. So good to be able to buy an efficient straight forward quality product. We don't all want over complicated items at inflated prices. Good price on offer. Just what was required and is good at what it does. Happy customer

Lovely light-weight iron that glides over the clothes when ironing. I don't use the steam function as I always spray my ironing with a squirty bottle. I find the 2m chord a little too short though. If it had a little longer chord, say 2.5m or 3m, it would be perfect.

Product Review: Morphy Richards Turbo Glide Steam Iron I recently bought the Morphy Richards Turbo Glide as a replacement for my iron that had lasted over 10 years, and I’m really pleased with it. I found it competitively priced, especially as it was on offer, which made it even better value. What I liked straight away is that it has like-for-like functions compared to my old iron, so the transition was very easy with no steep learning curve. It’s a nice weight – solid enough to feel sturdy but not too heavy – and the cord is a good length, which makes it much easier to move around when ironing. Overall, I’d recommend this iron to anyone looking to replace theirs. It’s a good quality option that’s simple to use, not too heavy, and has a good range of practical, easy-to-use functions.

Had this iron a little over a month now. It’s not too heavy, holds a decent amount of water, the steam function is really good and makes light work of my never-ending pile of ironing!

I needed a new lightweight iron as I have a wrist injury and couldn't lift my previous 1.5kg one without pain. This iron is perfect. It really is very light but that doesn't mean it doesn't work as well as a heavier iron. The cord could be a little bit longer, but that's a personal preference. All in all, i've very happy with my new iron. Top Banana!

After many years, I replaced my faithful Murphy Richards iron with a newer, shinier version of the turbo glide. It irons well and I’ve been pleased with it so far. The only issue for me is that the water chamber empties quickly and needs to be refilled with distilled or deionized water. Recommended.

I love this iron. Vast improvement to my last on. It's lightweight and just glides over the facric. Can find any thing bad to say. I highly recommend purchase

Didn't work for a year and broke down.

It has leakage and not totally dripping proof.

Replacing an older (heavier) really good Morphy Richards iron I've had for over 10 years, this one's a little lighter (old one: 1.6kg!) but it has a larger tank (great) and glides quite a bit easier (even better). Verdict: Overall better than the old one! You could do a lot worse..

It’s not the lightest iron but does an amazing job, the steam constantly comes out as you iron no need for steam boost, let the iron heat up properly for the steam or it will leak ( as some reviews have said but they haven’t used the iron as per instructions) and then the iron is 10/10 for the price and quality
