Russell Hobbs PowerSteam Ultra 20630
Corded steam iron · 350ml tank
Editorial review Reviewed 6 November 2026 How we assess products
The PowerSteam Ultra 20630 is a good fit if you iron a mixed load most weeks and want to keep the set-up simple. Its ceramic plate glides easily on large areas, and the narrow tip makes shirt fronts and cuffs easier to finish. There’s a strong steam shot for thick seams and folds. The 350 ml tank keeps refills manageable for ordinary loads, but carrying that water in the iron makes it feel heavier as you move between garments. A lighter basic iron makes sense for the occasional shirt. For frequent bedding or several baskets at once, consider the extra water capacity of a generator.

Brabantia Ironing Board B
Use this height-adjustable board for corded and cordless irons as well as steam generators. Keep your current board if it’s stable and has room to set your iron, dock or base down safely.
The separate metal tray takes generator bases up to 40 × 22 cm. The Philips PerfectCare 6000 fits those dimensions. Check the board’s load limit against the filled unit’s weight and make sure all feet sit flat inside the tray. The larger Philips PerfectCare Elite Plus needs a separate, stable, heat-resistant surface for its base.
