The iron box is perhaps one of the widely used home appliances worldwide. From the heavy, bulky device that used hot coal to press the clothes, the design and functionalities of the iron box has evolved significantly over the years. Today, the modern-day iron boxes are compact in size and have a sleek design. Not to mention, they offer advanced features, from steaming to anti-rust soleplate.
Another significant feature of the modern iron press is the cordless feature that enhances the functionality of the iron box. Since the advent of the cordless iron box, ironing clothes has become much easier and convenient. You can be sure to wear perfectly-ironed clothes, without any wrinkles or ugly creases, and maintain your sharp and immaculate looks every single time you step out of the home.
Before we delve into the different functionalities offered by cordless iron machines, let us first know what they are and understand how they work.
What is a cordless iron box and how does it work?
A cordless iron box looks and works just like the traditional iron box. The only difference is that unlike the regular iron box, the cordless iron box does not have any wire attached to it, and it gives you the flexibility of moving anywhere in the room to press your clothes.
Unlike the traditional iron box that is directly connected to the socket through a wire, the cordless iron sits on a docket, which is connected to the socket. When you turn on the power, the dock converts the electrical energy into heat energy, and then passes the heat to the soleplate of the iron.
Now that you know the benefits of a cordless iron and how it adds additional functionality
Multifunctionality
Some of the premium cordless iron box models, like the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron offered by Wipro Appliances, offer 2-in-functionality. This means they are carefully designed to be versatile and highly efficient. You can use this steam ironing machine, which has a cordless iron as a regular iron press. This makes it a handy appliance to press your clothes in all situations.
If you are using the iron box at home, you can use it as cord iron, and press your clothes over an ironing board, and enjoy a hassle-free ironing experience. You can easily glide over all corners of the dress or shirt that you are ironing, and press out even the smallest of crease.
However, if you are using the iron outdoors or while travelling, where you don't have the convenience of an ironing board, you can easily take the iron box to anywhere you want to press the clothes.
Perfect for all kinds of fabric
Most of the cordless iron box models you may find in the market, including the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron have an adjustable thermostat control feature, allowing you to easily adjust the heat and the intensity of the steam produced by the iron to suit the kind of fabric that you are ironing.
While some of the models have a basic and generic heat setting, from high to low, this model has a fabric-specific setting. So, whether you are ironing clothes that are made of soft and delicate fabric like silk, nylon, etc., or you want to press clothes made of tough fabric like wool, cotton linen, you can adjust the thermostat setting accordingly and ensure neat and clean ironing without damaging the fabric.
Variable steam control
Another significant feature of the cordless iron box that offers additional functionality and makes ironing easier and faster than ever before is the powerful steam burst and vertical steam function offered by premium models like the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron. This unique feature, which you don't get with the traditional dry iron box, allows perfect steaming for all kinds of clothes, from large garments like bedsheets, curtains and bedding to smaller clothes like shorts and blouses.
Also, the powerful burst steam feature makes ironing more effective, especially while pressing large clothes, and keep them safe. So, you need not worry about your favourite garments getting damaged or burned due to high exposure to heat while ironing them. Instead, you can use the burst steam function and press the clothes perfectly without compromising on the ironing quality.
Switch to dry ironing as needed
Sometimes when you are outdoors or travelling, it may not be possible to steam your clothes. In such a situation, you can use the 2-in-1 functionality of the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron and use its dry ironing function for effective ironing. Even when you switch to dry ironing, the iron box swiftly glides over the fabric, and let you evenly press the clothes, removing all the wrinkles.
Anti-drip feature
This is another effective feature of the cordless irons that add to its functionality. Some of the cordless iron box models like the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron have an anti-drip feature that prevents the water in the water tank of the iron from dripping on to the clothes while you are ironing. This gives an effortless ironing experience, and help you finish ironing the clothes faster.
Faster heating
The modern cordless iron box models have high power capacity. For example, the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron have 1250 watts of power, which enables faster heating up of the soleplate and allows you to speed up the ironing process. Unlike the traditional iron box models, you don't have to wait for long for the iron box to heat; it heats up fast and retains the heat for a long time, allowing you to press the clothes in a single use.
Ceramic coating soleplate
Undoubtedly, one of the most critical components of an iron box is its soleplate. The modern cordless iron box like the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron have a special ceramic coating over the soleplate, which allows you to easily glide over different kinds of fabric.
Also, the ceramic coatings prevent the iron box from dust accumulation. It has an auto clean technology, which self-cleans the soleplate from the debris and other residual substances from the fabric being stuck to the iron box. The ceramic coating also makes cleaning the iron box easy; all you have to do is just wipe it off with a clean cloth after you use it, and it will be ready to use the next time.
Final Word
The cordless iron box has truly been a wonderful invention that makes ironing easy and fast like you may not have imagined. So, invest in a good cordless iron box like the Elato GS 206 2-in-1 Cord Plus Cordless Steam Iron make ironing a fun routine.
