Review of the iron with the MIE Bravissimo steam generator

We present you with an overview of the MIE Bravissimo steam generator iron. We studied the technical characteristics of the device and tested it on various types of fabrics. From this review, you will find out how well the MIE Bravissimo model copes with crumpled laundry, and whether it is worth buying this appliance for home use.

MIE Bravissimo is sold under the Russian MIE OEM brand. This brand has a good reputation in Russia. MIE sells quality steam home appliances from Italy in different price categories. From customer reviews on the forums, we learned that MIE provides a warranty for all of its products, and also has an advanced and affordable service.

Appearance

The MIE Bravissimo model consists of an iron and a steam generator, which are connected with a hose. The device is made in black and orange colors. It is compact and mobile. The design of MIE Bravissimo is thought out to the smallest detail, so the device will fit into any apartment.

The difference between MIE Bravissimo and other devices

• Powerful steam boost (up to 5.5 bar)

Steam boost is a powerful and short burst of steam. This is the time period in which the device irones as efficiently as possible. All difficult creases can be removed with a powerful steam boost. After ejection of steam, the appliance takes some time to build up pressure again. While we wait for the next steam hit, we iron the rest of the product.

The higher the steam boost, the faster and deeper the steam penetrates into the fabric fibers. That is, MIE Bravissimo will perfectly cope even with overdried tissue.

• Antikaplya system

Thanks to this addition, the appearance of excess moisture on the surface of the iron is excluded. You will not leave wet spots during the steaming process.

• Volume of the tank

The water compartment holds 1.1 liters, which allows you to iron without stopping for 30 minutes.

• Water replenishment system during ironing

If you have not had time to iron all things for half an hour, then just add water to the tank. This can be done directly during the operation of the steam generator, without waiting for it to cool down.

• Automatic adjustment

The power in the steam generator is automatically regulated. There are two indicators on the control panel: the device is on and the steam is ready.

• Boiler steam generation system

The result of ironing with the help of a device with a boiler system for generating steam is always better and more efficient. Unlike gravity appliances, in boiler devices, steam penetrates deep into the fibers of the fabric and straightens them.

• Vertical steaming

Thanks to the powerful flow of steam, the iron can steam things directly on the hanger. It is not necessary to remove the product and place it on the ironing board - this saves time.

Reviews on the Internet

Before testing the device, we read customer reviews. There were no negative reviews on the manufacturer's website, so we studied forums and websites of independent stores. We practically did not find any negative comments. Buyers are satisfied with the price-performance ratio of the device.

As it turned out, the MIE Bravissimo model took first place among steam irons in 2016.

Here is a review of the iron with the MIE Bravissimo steam generator from video blogger Daria Trofimova

We test the device

The first thing that I would like to note is the comfortable weight of the iron with the steam generator. It can be easily placed in any place convenient for you. We decided to try ironing the appliance on a functional MIE Gamma ironing board.

Please note: if you already have an ironing board with some functions, then by pairing it with the MIE Bravissimo you get a real ironing system!

The sole of the iron is made of highly polished stainless steel. It can be used in both steaming mode and dry ironing mode.

We have ironed several things from different types of fabric and are ready to share the results with you:

• Jeans

MIE Bravissimo handled rather coarse fabric with ease. We ironed the product with a heated iron soleplate and turned on the steaming mode several times (to eliminate deep folds).

• Towel

We folded the towel in 2 times (it turned out 4 layers) and tried to steam it in this form. A powerful jet of steam penetrated several layers of the fabric and the towel smoothed out in seconds.

• Silk blouse

It is easy to ruin a blouse, as silk is a delicate fabric that needs special care. We turned on the steaming mode and put the product in order without touching it with the iron soleplate. The result exceeded all expectations: the blouse smoothed out in a few seconds.

• T-shirt

We found out that things are ironed perfectly on the ironing board. It remains to be seen how MIE Bravissimo handles vertical steaming. We steamed the T-shirt without removing it from the hanger. The result pleased us, but ironing all your things in this way will be less convenient.

Results of testing the iron with the MIE Bravissimo steam generator

It took us about 5 minutes to iron 4 products. An ordinary iron during this time would cope with only one product. It should be noted that the device steams well both horizontally and vertically. If you urgently need to leave the house, and things are not ironed, then it is not necessary to lay out the ironing board. Just turn on the MIE Bravissimo and steam your clothes right on the hanger.

Another advantage of an iron with a steam generator is the ability to rid the thing of smell. If you've only wore your shirt once, you don't need to wash it. Just sweep the surface with steam, paying special attention to the underarms. This will keep the shirt odorless and give it a fresh look.
While working with MIE Bravissimo, we found one small flaw. Out of habit, I want to put the iron on the surface of the ironing board, but this is impossible. There is a special place for the iron on the steam generator. This is a minor minus, and a matter of habit.

conclusions

The iron with the MIE Bravissimo steam generator is a powerful and durable device. This iron with a steam generator is ideal in terms of price-quality ratio, has excellent technical characteristics and rightfully became the leader among irons with a steam generator in 2016. We definitely recommend the MIE Bravissimo for home use.
