Pros and cons

According to our iron expert

The iron automatically provides steam thanks to the motion sensor.
You don't have to set a temperature yourself, so you don't have to worry about scorch marks.
Thanks to the smooth and scratch-resistant soleplate, you can smoothly iron without damages.
The iron is a bit heavier because it has a large water tank.

Description

With the Philips 8000 Series DST8040/30, you can iron faster and with less effort. The motion sensor automatically provides steam as soon as you move the iron. The OptimalTEMP technology automatically chooses the right temperature. You can iron anything from jeans to silk without making scorch marks this way. This means you don't have to sort clothes beforehand. The SteamGlide Elite soleplate glides smoothly over any piece of clothing. The soleplate is scratch-resistant and you can easily clean it. With an 80g/min constant steam output and a 260g extra steam burst, you can also remove wrinkles from thick fabrics like jeans. The 350ml water tank provides a lot of ironing time without having to refill. After 8 minutes, the appliance automatically turns off. That's safer.

Nice iron. Very easy to use.

It has limited adjustability, but that makes it perfect for daily use.
