Steam iron BRAUN TexStyle 9 SI9682 Dark Blue — 3200 W, EloxalPlus soleplate, 2.5 m cord

The BRAUN TexStyle 9 SI9682 is a high-power steam iron delivering 3200 W and designed for efficient home garment care. It combines an EloxalPlus soleplate for smooth gliding and surface durability with FreeGlide 3D Technology that enables forward and backward movement over obstacles. The iron includes a 0.33 L water tank, a 2.5 m power cord and a lightweight 1.7 kg build, plus vertical steam for upright refreshing of clothing and curtains.

Advantages

The iron's FreeGlide 3D soleplate glides over buttons and pockets in any direction, while the ActiClean calc collector simplifies descaling and improves longevity. iCare Technology maintains a safe temperature for all ironable fabrics, and a precision tip helps tackle hard-to-reach wrinkles. Additional features include an automatic descaling reminder, anti-drip protection and an Eco mode that reduces energy consumption compared to Turbo mode.

Suitable for

• Home users who need fast removal of deep creases
• People who refresh hanging garments or curtains using vertical steam
• Users who prefer low-maintenance descaling and long-lasting appliance performance
• Those who want a powerful iron with smooth gliding over seams and buttons

When it may not be suitable

This model is large and powerful, so it may be more than required for very occasional or travel-only use. Its 2.5 m cord and 1.7 kg weight are optimized for home use rather than compact portability.

How to use

Fill the water tank through the large opening, select the iCare or desired steam mode and allow the iron to heat.

Follow the descaling reminder and empty the calc collector as indicated to maintain steam performance and prolong the iron's lifespan.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended frequency of use—powerful 3200 W model is best for regular home ironing
• Weight and size—1.7 kg and 2.5 m cord are designed for home, not travel
• Water tank capacity—0.33 L gives moderate runtime between refills
• Need for vertical steaming and low-maintenance descaling features

Usage recommendations

Use iCare mode for mixed-fabric loads to protect textiles, empty and clean the ActiClean calc collector according to the descaling reminders, and use the precision tip for collars and seams. For energy savings choose Eco mode when maximum steam power is not required.
