The best Galaxy irons by features and cost in 2022

Without an iron, it is impossible to imagine the life of any home. Devices for keeping clothes in proper form appeared even before there was electricity. And now, with the development of technology, irons have become lighter, more energy efficient and, most importantly, more powerful. This is due to the addition of new features and design improvements. Consider the best iron models in 2022 offered by the Chinese manufacturer GALAXY.

The best Galaxy irons

Galaxy GL6107

Price: 2 249 rubles.

Colors: gray, turquoise, white.

Compact sleek iron with an ergonomic design. The very first thing the manufacturer recommends doing when starting to use this iron is to clean the steam channels. They may have become contaminated during the manufacturing process and, together with the steam, may stain clothing. Therefore, the tank is filled with water, and it evaporates all the way to the end. Then it is poured again and the iron is ready for use.

Thanks to a set of basic functions, it is used on all types of materials, as evidenced by sole temperature regulators. When ironing, you do not need to tempt fate and check with an iron whether heating is suitable for a particular item or not. There are the following designations:

It is worth noting that such designations are relevant for all irons reflected in this rating.

To use the steam mode or additional humidification, you must fill the tank with water. The filling level is determined by the MAX limit. After connecting to the network, the heating indicators (red and green) light up. When the red light goes out, the iron is ready to use.

Keep in mind that the steaming mode is possible only at the highest temperature. To smooth out strong wrinkles or, for example, the formation of an arrow on trousers, you can use a humidifier. It supplies water from a special hole on the tip of the iron. It must be borne in mind that only boiled or purified water is poured into the tank so that the sprinkler spout does not become clogged with limescale. If nevertheless this happened, the hole is easily cleaned with a needle.

This model of iron is equipped with a thermal shock function - this is a powerful directional steam. It is carried out by directing the jet into the fabric. This function is convenient for steaming children's clothes, cotton underwear. This is done for hygienic reasons.

Ironing with this iron is recommended first at low temperatures. This is due to the fact that the iron cools down more slowly. If you still had to reduce the heat during ironing, you need to wait more than 3 minutes for this temperature to appear.

For safety, the iron is equipped with an automatic shut-off system. It works 30 seconds after the iron is in a horizontal position and after 8 minutes in a vertical position. This means that the iron is in a stationary state. Disconnection is signaled by flashing indicators. To resume work, you must change the position of the iron. After the indicator goes out, you can continue to work.

• ceramic coating of the sole;
• thermal shock function;
• automatic shutdown system;
• iron self-cleaning function;
• low price.

• there is no wire holder in the coiled state;
• no groove for buttons.

Galaxy GL6117

Price: 1 300 rub.

Colors: brown, white.

The iron is a compact model weighing only 1.35 kg. The streamlined shape and raised back make the iron more manoeuvrable and better iron difficult uncomfortable places. The water tank is equipped with a transparent plastic cap to prevent dust from entering.

Steam is supplied by selecting a special temperature mode and pressing a button. The level of steam supply is controlled by the regulator. Behind the wider body lies a larger outsole. Therefore, a large amount of laundry for heat treatment is no longer a problem. In this model, the steam boost function is available - for this, the maximum value of the steam regulator is set and, during breaks in operation, the iron is placed on the base, and not vertically. Thanks to its powerful steam, the iron can be used when working with garments while sewing - the seams often have to be steamed or glued with an adhesive seal.

The mains connection cord is connected to the iron through a movable hinge, which protects it from twisting and creases. And the hinge itself with a high plastic braid, which additionally protects the wire from damage.

The knobs and buttons switch smoothly and smoothly. There is almost no sound from them. The shape of the buttons is pleasant to the touch, pressing is easy. Next to the heating controller is a detailed description of the temperature, including intermediate values. The designations near the buttons are written in Russian, which is very convenient for perception.

On the soleplate of the iron, the holes are staggered. This ensures even steam and a faster ironing process. And the place where water is poured into the tank is closed with a transparent plastic cap. Thanks to her, dust does not get into it.

The iron is equipped with a self-cleaning function (there is a separate button for this). This function works to clean the steam passages from scale. Cleaning is done by turning on a heat stroke on a piece of old cloth. To maintain the efficiency of the iron, I recommend doing it every 2-3 weeks. To prevent severe clogging with limescale, it is recommended to use purified water for the tank.

• expressive design;
• low price;
• light weight.

• no automatic cord rewind function;
• there is no wire limiter to store the wire in a coiled state.

Galaxy GL6116

Price: 1,189 rubles.

Colors: brown, white.

This model of iron is not much different from its predecessors. In it, Galaxy slightly changed the appearance, design and added a silicone seal to the tank lid.How important this addition is can only be determined in practice.

But from the innovations appeared vertical steaming. This is a great solution for those who are not sure if their clothes can be ironed directly. There will be no harm from steam if it is directed correctly.

In the ironing function, everything remained unchanged: dry ironing, thermal shock function, humidification function, constant steam function. Thanks to minor innovations, the iron became heavier - it began to weigh 1 kg 550 g, but this benefited him - it is easier to iron coarse fabrics.

The wire of the iron is fixed in a hinged plastic protection - it is high enough to protect the wire from twisting and creases. There is still no limiter for fixing the wire in the coiled state. This is a minor flaw, but it would be very good for Galaxy irons. Although, on the other hand, they would raise their price and take them out of the low price category.

A great feature has been added to this Galaxy model - a button groove. This is a great addition for shirt lovers. Often, it is precisely because of the inconvenience of ironing places with buttons that shirts are no longer worn and switched to knitwear. This iron is not a problem.

For convenience of work on the case of the iron indicators of heating are located. When turned on, the iron flashes, when the desired temperature is reached, the light is on continuously. This function is especially relevant when using steaming - if the desired temperature is not reached, the iron will supply water instead of steam.

On the body, all designations are written in Russian, which makes the use of the iron intuitive. The buttons and controls are large and smooth to use.The level of maximum filling with water is clearly visible and on the transparent body it is also clearly visible how much water is poured into the tank.

The main disadvantage of this model is the lack of automatic shutdown. Of course, this is a relative disadvantage, however, the function of self-shutdown of equipment is not superfluous.

• streamlined comfortable shape of the iron;
• ceramic coating of the sole;
• wire swivel;
• the presence of a vertical steaming function;
• groove for buttons;
• steam regulator.

• limited color range;
• the absence of a wire limiter when winding it;
• no automatic safety shutdown.

Galaxy GL6110

Price: 1250 rubles.

Colors: purple, pink, black.

Of the entire line of irons, Galaxy is the brightest model. Saturated colors with a bright design. There are plenty to choose from. For any hostess, such a gift will be an excellent find, which, in addition to performance, will also please with its appearance.

Galaxy is one manufacturer whose brand consistency does not at all mean a corresponding increase in features. It would seem that there should be no special innovations for the Galaxy GL6110.

The manufacturer equipped the iron with a ceramic sole and a number of nice additions. Among them there is an anti-drip system, protection against scale, a button groove, a self-cleaning system and an overheating protection system.

The handle has a comfortable rubber tab for a comfortable grip. The cord is secured in a highly braided movable fastener.

The opening for replenishing the tank with water is closed with a lid, preventing the ingress of dust and foreign particles. To maintain the quality of the steam supply and the water tank, you must regularly use the self-cleaning function - it is activated by a separate button. Of course, it must be carried out with the maximum steam supply turned on and on an old flap of fabric.

One of the important and necessary functions in the iron has become an anti-drip system. It saves things from getting wet while ironing at low temperature. Often you have to iron one thing after another, as a result of which the tank remains full. In the absence of this function, water from the reservoir can get on things, which is unpleasant, and when a person is also in a hurry, it can be very frustrating, since delicate fabrics, for example, cannot be dried with high temperature, and you cannot go in wet clothes.

Anti-calc is another feature added to this Galaxy model. She will perfectly cope with her task to protect the iron only on one condition - use only distilled water in the tank. This is a certain difficulty, since some of the family members will remember this, some will not. Therefore, the only way to prevent scale is to use pretreated water. And timely pressing the self-cleaning button.

• beautiful colors;
• ergonomic design;
• safety shutdown system;
• protection against scale;
• built-in anti-drip system.

• lack of automatic cord winding;
• there is no cable stopper in its folded state.

Galaxy GL6108

Price: 1769 rubles.

Colors: purple, white.

Galaxy model with increased water tank volume. Because of this, it has a higher mass and volumetric appearance. The tank lid is equipped with a silicone seal. The outsole is ceramic. The shape of the sole has been slightly changed - elongated, with a more pronounced one with a powerful steam supply. On the soleplate of the iron, steam escapes through a wide strip with three rows of holes.

Thanks to the increased weight, the iron irons thick layers of fabric more easily. To improve the quality of ironing, the iron has the main functions - thermal shock and spatter. The mains connection wire is connected through a plastic braided swivel. High plastic cable protection at the base protects it from bending and damage.

The automatic shut-off system, equipped with an indication, is responsible for the safety of the iron. That is, before turning off the iron will give a light signal. Also, the indication reflects the inclusion of the iron. When heating is performed, the light flashes; when heating is completed, the light is on constantly.

Powerful steam system allows you to steam things in a vertical position. But still, this is an iron, not a steamer, so it’s better not to wait for super abilities in this direction. The power of steam supply can be adjusted with a regulator, and the steam supply itself is turned on with a button. Continuous steam mode available. Along with steaming, a dry ironing mode is also available.

The iron is also equipped with an anti-drip protection and an anti-calc system. In order for them to fully justify their purpose, you need to use only purified water for the iron and regularly use the self-cleaning button.

• low price;
• large water tank;
• groove for buttons;
• safety shutdown system.

• no automatic cord winder;
• there is no wire limiter in the coiled state.
