Description
Finally no spitting or leaking while ironing! The Reliable Velocity V50 Steam Iron produces volumes of steam with digital temperature accuracy and removes wrinkles like a professional iron. With its patented two heating element design, the Velocity V50 won’t let you down! A high quality stainless steel soleplate with holes at the tip allows for maximum steam penetration, even along those narrow gaps, while ironing your garments. The Velocity V50 is equipped with an automatic shut-off system which once activated will cease to heat and begin to cool the iron down 8 minutes after it was last used. For those who wish to leave the iron on for more than 8 minutes, the V50 also has a steam ready feature that allows the iron to stay on indefinitely. Other outstanding features include temperature display, left and right hand friendly steam activation buttons, 360° swivel cord and anti-scale system for keeping the internal tank clean and in tip-top shape. Simply put, the V50 offers everything you need in one simple and fun design!
Features
- Patented continuous steam technology: two heating elements. Internal heating chamber pre-heats the water before it hits the heated soleplate. Ensures continuous volumes of steam, even at low temperatures
- Will not spit or leak and removes wrinkles like a professional iron
- Automatic shut off: iron shuts off automatically eight minutes after the last time it was used. This means that once the shut off device is activated, it ceases to heat and begins to cool down. To wake it up again, press the temperature button for at least one second.
- Steam Ready feature: allows the user to iron continuously without the auto shut off feature. When activated, the iron will not shut off, unless manually turned off by the user.
- Stainless steel soleplate: professional soleplate with holes at the tip for maximum steam penetration. Using stainless steel keeps it easy to clean and maintain
- Does not have a coated soleplate: Reliable does not put any spray coating on the irons. The coatings on irons will eventually scratch off and may become airborne and harmful to your health
- Ergonomic steam activation: left and right hand friendly steam activation buttons. Convenient for all.
- Temperature display: temperature indication with easy to read light display
- 360°F swivel cord: comfortable handle for extended use and 360 degree swivel cord
- Anti-scale cartridge: if you are in a hard water area, the build up of minerals such as calcium can be very detrimental to an iron. While distilled water is recommended, a replaceable anti-scale cartridge actively removes minerals from whatever water is being used, prolonging the life and improving the performance of the iron. It is recommended to replace the cartridge (subject to use) every 6 – 12 months
- Woolmark approved: first and only iron for home use that acts like it's a pro iron. The approval confirms it is safe to use on delicate wool fabrics
- 4 temperature settings, which can be selected by pressing the temperature selector
- 1800 watt heating element
- Steam pressure: 30g/minute
- Water capacity: 1.26 cups (300 ml)
- Weight: 3.3 lbs
How it Works
Conventional irons work by you setting the thermostat on the iron to the required temperature, pressing a button for steam where the water from the reservoir is released to the soleplate and then produces steam. The shortcomings of this method of creating steam are experienced when the temperature you require is too low for the water to be converted to steam. The results are typically spitting water/steam and in some cases ruining the garment.
The Reliable Velocity V50 compact vapor generator irons work differently by using two heating elements. The first heating element is mounted inside the iron, and is used to pre-heat the water to steam temperature. The second heating element is built right into the soleplate and is controlled by the digital buttons on the irons handle. Because the water is pre-heating using the first heating element, no matter what temperature setting you choose for your soleplate, you only get dry, even steam without spitting
