Breville VIN227 Specification

The Breville VIN227 is a modern steam iron designed to streamline garment care with efficiency and precision. At its core, the device features a powerful 2400-watt heating element that ensures quick heat-up times and consistent steam output. The iron's design incorporates a ceramic soleplate, known for its smooth gliding capabilities and even heat distribution, which helps prevent fabric snags and enhances overall ironing performance. Equipped with a variable steam function, the VIN227 allows users to adjust steam output according to fabric type, optimizing results for delicate silks to heavier cottons. Its steam boost function is particularly useful for tackling stubborn creases, offering a concentrated burst of steam when necessary. The iron includes a vertical steam option, enabling users to freshen up hanging garments and curtains without the need for an ironing board. For user convenience, the VIN227 comes with a generous 250ml water tank, reducing the frequency of refills during ironing sessions. Safety is a priority, with the iron featuring an automatic shut-off system that activates after a period of inactivity, minimizing the risk of accidents. The anti-drip feature prevents water leakage at low temperatures, while the anti-scale system helps maintain the iron's performance over time by reducing mineral buildup. Ergonomically designed, the iron ensures comfortable handling with its soft-grip handle and lightweight construction, making it easy to maneuver across all types of fabrics. The Breville VIN227 combines functionality with user-friendly design, making it an ideal choice for those seeking reliability and efficiency in their garment care routines.
