How to choose
Steam output and wattage
Steam output is stated only for the Newbealer at 40 g/min, so compare the others on watts and settings instead. Wattage runs from 1200 watts on the Hamilton Beach, BLACK+DECKER, and BEAUTURAL to 1550 watts on the Newbealer and 1850 watts on the Rowenta. Match steam output and watts to how heavy your wrinkled loads run.
Auto shutoff and cords
Auto shutoff is listed for the Newbealer and the Rowenta. The Hamilton Beach adds an 8-foot retractable cord that stores inside the iron, while the BLACK+DECKER cord toggles down out of the way. Match shutoff and cord style to how you store the iron.
Soleplates and tanks
Soleplates differ: the Newbealer uses a Diamond Ceramic Soleplate. The Hamilton Beach and Rowenta use stainless steel soleplates. The BLACK+DECKER and BEAUTURAL use non-stick plates. Tanks run from 230 ml on the BLACK+DECKER and 200 ml on the BEAUTURAL to a 1.2L detachable tank on the Newbealer. Match soleplate and tank size to your fabrics and ironing sessions.
