This is a dry iron (i.e. non steam) from CORNELL, model CI SP5H.
Weight: ~ /1.6 /kg — heavier than many basic irons.
Power / Voltage: 1000–1200 /W, compatible with standard 220–240 /V / 50–60 /Hz mains (as in Malaysia).
Soleplate: Ceramic coated soleplate — helps the iron glide smoothly over fabrics and reduces sticking.
Controls: Adjustable temperature control with thermostat and temperature indicator light.
Other features: Chrome shell, Bakelite (or heat resistant) handle, BS plug, ~1.5 /m cord length.
Soleplate size: ~ /12.7 /cm × 22.3 /cm — fairly wide for good coverage per stroke.
Warranty: According to listing, comes with 2 year general warranty.
Better iron through power: Because it’s heavy (~1.6 /kg) and has a large, ceramic-coated soleplate, it can press wrinkles out more effectively and evenly — especially useful for heavier fabrics like cotton, denim, or thick uniforms.
Smooth gliding & fabric friendly: The ceramic soleplate helps it slide over fabric without snagging or sticking, reducing risk of damaging delicate garments.
Good control over heat: Adjustable temperature + thermostat + indicator light means you can match heat level to fabric type — from light synthetics to heavier cotton.
Suitable for frequent / batch ironing: For people ironing many clothes (e.g. uniforms, work shirts) frequently, the weight and plate size help reduce the number of passes needed, saving time.
Simple, low maintenance: As a dry iron (no water tank, no steam functions), there’s less to maintain (no anti scale cleaning, no dripping), which means easier care and lower risk of leaks.
