Bosch Serie I2 TDS2120

The steam station of the German company Bosch is distinguished by a bright yellow-white colour. The iron is connected by a water hose to a 1.5 liter tank, which allows you to work with large batches of linen and clothes. You can add liquid to the container directly in the process of ironing and steaming.

Efficient steam and steam boost

The power of the Bosch Serie I2 TDS2120 heating element is 2400 W, which contributes to the rapid heating of the sole and water. Steam is generated already in the iron itself (flow steam generation) and is supplied with a pressure of 4.5 bar. In continuous mode, its supply occurs at an intensity of up to 110 g / min, and with a steam boost of SteamBoost — 200 g / min.

The soleplate temperature setting has two positions: the i-Temp Advanced universal ironing programme, which is suitable for most types of fabrics, including delicate ones, and the Turbo mode. There are also three settings for the intensity of steam generation: eco (reduces electricity costs), medium and strong flow.

At maximum settings, the quality of smoothing does not cause any complaints from users. But in other modes, the amount of steam may not be enough, for example, to eliminate strong wrinkles and effective vertical steaming.

Self cleaning system

The Bosch Serie I2 TDS2120 offers the convenient Calc'nClean Easy descaling programme. A special timer-indicator notifies about the need to start it. The appliance comes with a container in which you need to install the iron while cleaning from accumulated deposits.

Thoughtful ergonomics

The iron is lightweight and has a comfortable handle. The sole of the model is made of ceramic (Palladium Glissee), which contributes to easy sliding and fast work. Adds information in the work of sound indication. And with convenient storage and carrying, compartments for a power cord and water supply help.

A fly in the ointment is the inability to put the iron vertically (it is to this part of the body that the water hose is connected), which, probably, will take a long time to get used to by many users. The situation is aggravated by the fact that the Auto-shut-off secure auto-off works after 8 minutes of inactivity, so the device should only be placed on a special stand.

Otherwise, Bosch Serie I2 TDS2120 is an interesting low-cost solution among models with a steam generator. It is simple and easy to use and care for.
