What is a steam generator iron and how is it different from a traditional iron?

A steam iron with boiler is an iron connected to a boiler where high-pressure steam is produced. The steam enters the iron after it has already been produced and when the pressure in the boiler is high. That is why the steam released from a pressurised boiler is different from that of a traditional steam iron. First and foremost, it produces much more of it and it is drier and more powerful, precisely because it is produced under pressure. A traditional iron has the advantage of being smaller and ready in just a few seconds.

The steam from the Polti Vaporella steam generator models is so potent that it can penetrate fibres and allows you to iron even several layers of fabric, such as folded sheets.
