SoftCare iron with patented honeycomb soleplate* 

Exclusive to Miele
Unique 
The benefits of the Miele honeycomb drum and EasyFold ironing table are now being used on the steam ironing system. With the patented honeycomb soleplate*, the steam is distributed differently than with conventional irons: lightning-fast through the small channels between the honeycombs, across the entire soleplate. The steam film produced allows the SoftCare iron to glide effortlessly and gently, yet effectively over the laundry.
