The Russell Hobbs Steam Iron is now under £40
A good steam iron can make ironing quick, easy, and even enjoyable, especially for those mornings when you need things done fast. Now, a reliable model with strong performance is available at nearly half price.
The Russell Hobbs Power Steam Ultra 3100W Steam Iron is currently on Amazon for £36.97, down from its RRP of £69.99, giving you a 47 percent discount.
This compact Russell Hobbs iron comes in a sleek design and features a ceramic soleplate for smooth gliding, a 350 ml water tank, and a powerful 210 g/min steam boost plus 70 g/min continuous steam, perfect for rolling out creases quickly.
It heats up in about 15 seconds and offers helpful extras like a self-clean function, drip-stop, anti-limescale protection, spray water, auto shut-off, and a tapered tip for precision ironing. It also includes a two-year manufacturer's guarantee, with an extra year added upon registration.
Rated 4.4 out of 5 stars from almost 39,916 reviews, this iron earns high marks for its speed, power, and overall ease of use.
However, if you are interested in other options, there is no dearth of alternatives available.
The Morphy Richards TurboSteam (303140), priced at £60 at Argos, holds an excellent 4.8 rating, especially valued for fabric-safe performance.
The Philips Series 5000 SteamGlide Plus (DST5030/26), sold at £40 at Argos, boasts a 4.6 rating and is known for durable steam delivery and glide.
But if it's Russell Hobbs you're after, it has received rave reviews. One reviewer said it was 'perfect for anyone who wants fast, hassle‑free ironing without needing to understand all the technical details …
"With 3100W of power, it heats up quickly and delivers strong steam to smooth out even the toughest creases…Simple to use and highly effective, this iron takes the stress out of ironing, perfect for everyday use..'
Still, users had noted a couple of minor flaws. One mentioned the handle design issue: 'Handle comes very low near the temperature dial… thumb gets jammed when picking it up. Could be irritating over time.'
Another praised its weight and practical features: 'Heavy, with a large water tank and long power cord… glides over fabric and makes ironing fast and efficient.'

Another warned about mineral buildup: 'Great steam, but after a couple of months, calc blocks the steam holes, use distilled water.'
Another shopper who'd experienced other brands wrote: 'Bought a Morphy Richards but it broke after two months… Russell Hobbs is brilliant, heavy, quality build, button cut‑outs on the plate are handy.'
Despite those minor issues, many consider the Russell Hobbs Power Steam Ultra a standout value for how effectively it smooths fabrics and simplifies ironing, especially when buying opportunity knocks like this.
