Polti La Vaporella XM80C

The Polti Vaporella range includes various kinds of products:

• High-pressure steam generator iron: These are the best products for ironing. Thanks to the boiler that generates high-pressure steam, the steam performance is exceptional. These are the products best suited for people who have a lot of garments to iron and are looking for professional results.
• Steam-generator irons: These are smaller and come with a separate large tank for ironing without frequent interruptions and offer a medium steam output. They are suited for anyone with a considerable amount of garments to iron and people who are looking for modern products that perform well.
• Steam irons: Also called traditional irons, these are small, compact irons with an in-built water tank. They are suited for anyone looking for a practical and quick product and who doesn’t have a lot of garments to iron.
• Vertical steamers: Also called garment steamers, these products are good for touch-ups as they don't require an ironing board and they are ready to use quickly, allowing you to iron out creases at the last minute before putting on a garment. They are also outstanding for freshening up fabrics, as the steam eliminates bad odours.

When you are ironing for a long time, cork is the perfect material. It guarantees maximum comfort because it insulates from heat so your hand won't get hot. It is also breathable so your hand won’t sweat.

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.

The steam pulse function delivers steam automatically at regular intervals without you having to continually press the steam button, thereby reducing repetitive stress on your fingers and wrists. To activate it, you just have to double click on the iron button and then press it again once to disable it. It is excellent for ironing vertically.

The turbo function will last for a maximum of 10 minutes, after which the La Vaporella will automatically switch over to the UNIVERSAL setting (mods. XT100C, XM80R, XM80C, XM82C, XT110, and XT90C) or the ECO setting (mod. XB60C). To reactivate it, just turn the dial to the TURBO setting again.
