Iron with enhanced steam function

Oh, and 4 blades was a joke on the Onion (satirical newspaper) but even 4 blades is real now! Sorry, off topic.

If they want to improve something how about the ironing BOARD. Stop the damn thing screeching like a banshee... and make the board so it can double as a REAL surf board.

Some things just don't need to be improved anymore. Irons, toothbrushes.. why does a shaver need 4 or even 5 blades?? 3 blades was a Saturday Night Live JOKE years ago.

LOL, Atria!

I just got a new iron but passed this one up because it was hard to push the buttons on the front. I got a Panasonic instead.

This is a typical example of a press release that is out of touch with the consumers who will buy it. Buyers of irons have no basis for comparison of how far it sprays jets of steam -- what they want to know about is its ergonomics, i.e., by how many grammes it's been lightened compared with predecessor models, improved non-stick properties of its teflon heating surface, etc.

$180 for an iron ? only in japan

I haven't ironed anything in 30 years. No thanks for this thing.

the iron can be used from a distance of 1.3 meters, 2.2 times further than conventional irons.

For people who need to iron but can't be bothered to get up off the couch.
