I wear uniforms (required) at work. I needed a steam iron to replace my last Rowenta that stopped working. I also have owned Panasonic (excellent with ceramic plate), and Black and Decker. However, after using the Chi; I can say that this steam iron takes the crown and leaves everyone in the dust. With 1700 watts, this monster delivers huge amount of heat and steam if needed. No cordless iron could duplicate that performance. It glides effortlessly. Especially on polyester. The titanium ceramic plate is magic. Congrats Chi. #1! Review: Best iron I've ever owned. - Had this iron for 8 years with absolutely zero issues. Probably the best iron I've ever owned. No water leaks, ample heat settings and great non-stick coating. I finally had to order a new one due to me dropping mine and it started leaking water. Wasn't leaking a lot, but enough to annoy me. That was totally my fault though and no blame on the manufacturer. Get this iron, you won't regret it. ## Features - CHI FLAT IRON TECHNOLOGY: Engineered with the same titanium-infused ceramic soleplate technology behind the CHI G2 Flat Iron, delivering an ultra-smooth glide for crisp, polished, wrinkle-free results across every fabric - POWERFUL STEAM PERFORMANCE: 1700 watts and 400+ steam holes deliver professional steam for superior wrinkle removal on even the most stubborn fabrics with adjustable steam control, burst of steam, and 3-way auto shutoff - VERSATILE ON ALL FABRICS: Precision temperature dial takes the guesswork out of garment care.

She had one like this, but it decor didn’t go in this one. The cord goes in and she absolutely loves it a lot more No I can use hers to do whatever I want with and I don’t touch hers I would suggest getting you one of these. It’s pretty sweet. as you can see cord on the outside cord within the inside, so much better having it on the inside. ## Frequently Bought Together - CHI Steam Iron for Clothes with 8’ Retractable Cord, 1700 Watts, 3-Way Auto Shutoff, 400+ Holes, Professional Grade, Temperature Control Dial, Titanium Infused Ceramic Soleplate, Silver (13106) - Bartnelli Ironing Board Made in Europe | Iron Board with 4 Layered Cover & Pad, Height Adjustable up to 36" Features A Safety Iron Rest, 4 Steel Legs, for Home Laundry Room or Dorm Use (43x14) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/64926196-chi-retractable-cord-iron](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/64926196-chi-retractable-cord-iron) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-23*
