Distinctive features of the model

The main distinguishing feature of the Morphy Richards 305003 iron is the support for the “intelligent” ironing mode. Turns on by pressing a special button. There is no traditional thermostat here, the control is fully adapted to the buttons.When this mode is turned on, the heating temperature of the soleplate, as well as the steam intensity, are automatically adjusted. It also works as an anti-drip system.

In addition to this, the swivel fastening of the power cable to the case. It does not interfere with work at all, it does not get tangled. It moves only in a vertical plane, so it never gets under the arm.

The outsole is fully ceramic coated. On the one hand, this improves glide, but sometimes causes synthetics to stick. So in this case it is better to set the heating temperature of the sole yourself. Smart mode does not always work correctly.

Most of the control buttons are placed directly on the handle. There is also an "eco-mode" of steaming, when steam is supplied evenly over the entire area of ​​​​the sole.

Reviews are mixed. There are no complaints about the functionality of the Morphy Richards 305003 iron, but the build quality leaves much to be desired, some came across defective models.

Antonina Vushak

Satisfied with the iron, but after 6 months the tank began to leak. Had to be replaced under warranty, no problems. Now I'm working on the second one, so far there are no complaints. It irons well, the steam boost is the same as on a full-fledged ironing station.
