Score: 72/100
PurSteam Steam Station Max
Score: 69/100Rankings
Rowenta Access offers a 1725 W stainless-steel soleplate, 59-second heat-up and a retractable cord for convenient storage. The modest water-tank capacity and limited steam burst reach can hinder long sessions. Suited for everyday mixed-fabric ironing on a budget.
The Pursteam Steam Station Max combines a 1500 W heater, large 1500 ml removable tank and fast 1.5-minute heat-up for extended steaming sessions. Its heavy weight and lack of vertical steam limit portability and versatility. It's aimed at families or heavy-load users needing continuous steam.
