Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Orchard Inn, a busy gastropub in Hereford, needed to upgrade their laundry equipment. Their domestic iron was struggling to keep up with the daily volume of heavy-duty aprons and thick cotton napkins, making the task slow and laborious.
"We were fighting with creases and spending far too much time on ironing. The Braun iron glides through the workload. Our napkins and aprons have never looked so sharp, and the staff are much happier with the new kit."
Michael Edwards – General Manager
The upgrade resulted in a measured 40% reduction in time spent on daily ironing tasks, freeing up staff for other front-of-house preparations.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before the first use, fill the tank with water, allow the iron to heat up fully, and press the steam button a few times to prime the system.
- We recommend ironing an old towel or cloth first to clear any potential factory residues from the soleplate.
- Always use a stable, heat-resistant ironing board designed to handle the steam and heat.
- For best results, check the care labels on your fabrics and match them to the iron's temperature settings.
Keeping It Going
- Always empty the water tank completely after you've finished ironing to prevent leaks and internal buildup.
- Run the self-clean function at least once a month (more in hard water areas) to keep it in peak condition.
- Once the iron is completely cool, wipe the soleplate with a soft, damp cloth to remove any residue.
- Always store the iron resting on its heel (vertically) to protect the soleplate from scratches and damage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use regular tap water in this iron?
A: Yes, the iron is designed for tap water. However, if you live in a very hard water area, mixing 50/50 with distilled water can help reduce limescale buildup even further.
Q: How powerful is the steam shot?
A: It delivers a powerful 120g/min burst, which is more than enough to tackle stubborn creases in demanding fabrics like linen tablecloths and chef's jackets.
Q: Is the Braun SI1019RD steam iron suitable for vertical steaming curtains?
A: While it has a powerful steam shot, it is primarily designed for traditional horizontal ironing to achieve the best, crispest results on laundry.
Q: How often should I use the self-clean function?
A: We recommend using it once a month as a general rule. If you notice steam performance dropping or are in a hard water area, you may want to do it more often.
Q: What is the power consumption?
A: It is a 1900W (1.9kW) appliance, which allows it to heat up very quickly and maintain a consistent temperature.
Q: Is this iron heavy to use for long periods?
A: Weighing just 1.67kg, it's considered lightweight for a commercial-grade iron, specifically designed to be ergonomic and reduce user fatigue.
Q: What kind of plug does it come with?
A: It comes fitted with a standard, fused UK 3-pin plug, ready to be used straight out of the box.
Q: How large is the water tank?
A: The integrated water tank has a 220ml capacity, offering a good balance between ironing time and keeping the unit lightweight and manoeuvrable.

Its robust construction and simplified, effective mechanics mean fewer things can go wrong, leading to less downtime, fewer frustrations, and a much longer service life than cheaper, unbranded alternatives.

Ever had an old iron spit out chalky white bits and stain your fresh laundry? That's limescale, and it's the number one enemy of steam appliances, especially in hard water areas. Over time, these mineral deposits clog up the steam vents, drastically reducing the iron's power and efficiency. The Self-Clean system on this Braun iron is your secret weapon against it.
Think of it like descaling your kettle. With the press of a button, the system uses a powerful surge of super-heated water and steam to flush out these pesky mineral deposits from the inside. Regularly using this feature keeps the steam channels clear, ensuring your iron delivers a powerful, consistent performance every time, just as it did on day one. It’s a simple feature that significantly extends the life of your iron and protects your linens.
