Ultimate performance steam generator to cut ironing time by 50% The Pro Express Autoclean GV8461 features 6 bar pressure, one of the highest in the market, which provides 120g/minute continuous steam, and an extra 260g shot of steam thanks to its Turbo steam function for those stubborn creases. Autoclean soleplate for long lasting performance Tefal offer the best soleplates in the world and the Pro Express GV8461 is equipped with the Autoclean soleplate, which combines unbeatable glideability with long lasting performance. The unique Palladium Autoclean soleplate offers longer-lasting performance by destroying the fibres which can stick to the face of the iron and cause marks on your clothes, damaging the glideability of your iron. The system uses catalytic oxidation as the iron heats up to transform these fibres into gas and steam. This unique soleplate has also has been specially made to be extremely scratch resistant. The active lines in the soleplate ensure excellent heat distribution. The Pro Express also offers a vertical steam function, ideal for getting creases out of suits or other hanging garments and can also be used to de-crease curtains. Easy to Use The Pro Express has a two- minute fast heat-up function, so it’s ready to use when you are ready to iron. Its large 1.8 litre removable water tank allows up to three hours of ironing time and can be continuously filled, so the steam generator does not have to be turned off before refilling. The two metre cord gives you plenty of manoeuvrability, and conveniently tucks away into a compartment when the ironing is done. The electrical cord is also fitted with an auto-cord rewind device for easier and more effective storage. Easy maintenance with anti-scale Like all Tefal's steam generators, the GV8461 features the unique anti-calc collector to keep the appliance scale-free. The water across much of the UK is very hard, and scale can build up and affect the performance of appliances. To combat the problem, Tefal has developed technology which changes the scale inside the boiler unit of the steam generator into a solid form, which is collected at the side of the generator for easy disposal. The steam generator has a corrosion-free boiler and is anti-drip for added ease of cleaning. Safety Safety is a key priority for Tefal, which is why the GV8461 has an auto-off function. This ensures the steam generator will be as safe as possible when not in use, by automatically shutting off when left unattended. It switches itself off after 30 seconds if left soleplate down, or eight minutes if left on its heel. The Pro Express Autoclean has Tefal’s unique Ultracord system, which prevents the cord from rucking up and keeps it away from your hands and the clothes while ironing. It also features a lock system, so you can safely carry the appliance by the handle with one hand. To add to all of this, the GV8461 is also an environmentally friendly product with an “Eco” setting that saves up to 20% of energy. Ultimately, as a leader in the steam generator’s market, Tefal makes sure you enjoy high quality ironing products with features that make your life easier. The Pro Express Autoclean also includes a 12-month warranty, supported by strong domestic guarantees and after sales service. About Steam Generators A steam generator is the most powerful type of ironing solution available. The appliances work by generating steam in a separate boiler unit and pumping it through the iron's soleplate into the clothes. The extra pressurised steam, pumping continuously through fabric, means steam generators cut ironing time in half compared to conventional steam irons. The pressure is measured in bars, the higher the pressure, the deeper the steam penetrates into the fabric, leading to a better result. The steam generator's steam output is indicated in grams per minute (g/min), so the higher the output, the more steam is generated. About Tefal Tefal owes its origins to Frenchman Marc Grégoire, an engineer and keen fisherman. Monsieur Grégoire wanted the reel on his rod to run more smoothly, and experimented in the 1950s to see if a non-stick coating would work. It did, but it was his wife Collette who made the real breakthrough, suggesting the coating would be more useful in making cookware easier to use and clean. Now, Tefal is the number one name in non-stick products and small appliances, operating in more than 120 countries. Tefal remains committed to making household tasks easier and cooking results better, through a constant flow of new ideas, technology and innovation. Examples of that cutting-edge innovation can be seen in the ActiFry, the AirBake baking range and Tefal's unique Thermo Spot, which ensures your pans are always the perfect temperature to start cooking.
