The clothes steamer of the well-known manufacturer Philips represents the ComfortTouch line and is one of the flagship models of the company. It is equipped with an extended vertical StyleBoard, and for a more secure fixing of things on the hanger there is a Hang & Lock. There is also a flexible textile nozzle FlexHead, designed to ensure good contact of the sole with the fabric.
In addition to steaming, the Philips ComfortTouch Plus GC558 steamer is able to freshen up and give a pleasant smell to clothes, for which the special MyEssence aroma capsule is included in the package. The power of the heating element is 2000 W, which contributes to quick readiness for operation — already 60 seconds after switching on. The capacious 1.8-liter tank is designed to eliminate the need for frequent topping up of water. If the liquid runs out, the device immediately goes into standby mode. To be able to process different types of fabric, the user is offered 5 modes (levels) of steam supply. The maximum intensity reaches 40 g/min: suitable for smoothing deep wrinkles and working with dense textile materials.

Stylish and practical
The older model of the Philips ComfortTouch line first of all stands out for its stylish appearance. It is provided by the original purple coloring, smooth body curves and the presence of the StyleBoard vertical stop. The latter is characterized by an increased length, which means that it will be possible to provide a stable position during steaming for both T-shirts or shirts, as well as dresses, coats and other large clothes.
Philips ComfortTouch Plus GC558 received a height-adjustable stand, a translucent 1.8-liter removable water tank and a 2000-watt heater that allows you to start working within a minute after turning on the network.
Original Chips
The device has 5 steam power settings for different types of fabric and produces steam at speeds up to 40 g/min. This intensity on paper does not look the most convincing, but, as practice shows, this is enough for most household tasks, including smoothing out deep wrinkles.
The Philips ComfortTouch Plus GC558 textile nozzle provides the usual oval shape, but the sole itself is mobile here. Accordingly, for maximum contact with the fabric during steaming, the user does not have to bend or strongly bend the hand. Another feature of the iron is the MyEssence aroma capsule. It is proposed to add perfume or aroma oils here to refresh and give clothes a pleasant smell.
Without scale and damage to the fabric
The manufacturer claims that the steamer will not damage even the most delicate fabric, such as silk. Also, yellow spots due to hard water should not appear on clothes, because the Easy Rinse de-calc anti-calc system is implemented here, which is responsible for collecting deposits in a separate compartment.
The range of the device does not exceed 3 metres, and the 1.3-metre steam hose is likely to make it difficult to steam high curtains or curtains. Also, the disadvantages include the lack of a separate steam button on the iron: you will need to lean towards the rotary switch on the body. If this is not critical for you, then the Philips ComfortTouch Plus GC558 and its proprietary chips are definitely worth a closer look.
