Reliable Velocity 240IR Compact Vapor Generator Steam Iron

The Reliable Velocity 240IR is an advanced compact vapor generator steam iron designed to provide continuous steam while giving you greater control for pressing everything from delicate fabrics to stubborn creases.

At the heart of the Velocity 240IR is Reliable's patented compact vapor generator technology. Unlike traditional irons that can be prone to leaking and spitting, the Velocity uses a two-heating-element system and micro-pump technology to pre-heat the water and convert it into steam before it reaches the soleplate. This allows the iron to deliver continuous, consistent steam even at lower temperatures.

The sensor steam handle provides intuitive steam control, while Eco and Turbo settings allow you to adapt the iron to different fabrics and pressing requirements. An anodized aluminum soleplate provides durable performance and smooth contact with the fabric.

For applications requiring uninterrupted operation, the Velocity 240IR also features an auto shutoff bypass, allowing the automatic shutoff function to be bypassed when continuous operation is needed.

Compact Vapor Generator Technology

Unlike conventional steam irons where water travels directly toward the heated soleplate, the Velocity 240IR uses Reliable's patented compact vapor generator to convert the water into steam before it reaches the soleplate.

A combination of two heating elements and micro-pump technology pre-heats the water, helping produce a continuous supply of steam without the leaking and spitting commonly associated with traditional steam irons. This technology also allows the 240IR to provide consistent steam at lower temperatures.

Sensor Steam Handle

The Velocity 240IR features a sensor steam handle designed to make steam control intuitive while ironing. The sensor-based system allows the iron to respond during use, providing convenient steam control without interrupting your pressing workflow.

Eco & Turbo Settings

With Eco and Turbo settings, the Velocity 240IR can adapt to different pressing requirements. Eco provides a gentler option for delicate fabrics, while Turbo provides increased performance when tackling stubborn creases and fabrics requiring more intensive pressing.

Anodized Aluminum Soleplate

The Velocity 240IR is equipped with an anodized aluminum soleplate designed for durable performance and efficient pressing. Its smooth surface allows the iron to move easily across fabric while maintaining consistent contact during pressing.

Auto Shutoff Bypass

The auto shutoff feature provides added safety during everyday use. When uninterrupted operation is required, the auto shutoff bypass allows the automatic shutoff function to be bypassed, making the 240IR particularly convenient for extended sewing and pressing sessions.

360° Swivel Cord

The 360° swivel cord moves freely as you iron, helping reduce cord tangling and providing greater freedom of movement around your ironing board or pressing station.

Shipping fees are automatically calculated based on the weight of your order, with several delivery options and prices available.

If a carrier does not service your address, we may need to use an alternative option, which could incur additional charges, particularly for P.O. box addresses.

For remote or rural areas where delivery costs are higher, additional fees may apply. In these cases, we will provide proof of the shipping costs to ensure transparency.

Other Provinces in Canada, USA, and International Shipping

For customers in other Canadian provinces, the USA, or internationally, we offer a range of shipping options through various carriers. The customer is responsible for selecting their preferred shipping method at checkout.

Please note that our system provides an estimated shipping cost at checkout, which may not always reflect the actual shipping charges.

In cases of oversized orders, shipments to rural or remote areas, or delivery to P.O. boxes, the final shipping cost may differ. If this occurs, we will contact you directly with the updated shipping cost, which will be the responsibility of the customer.

Import Duties & Customs Fees (USA & International Orders)

All orders shipped outside of Canada — including to the United States — may be subject to import duties, customs fees, taxes and other charges assessed by the destination country’s customs authorities. These charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost and are the sole responsibility of the customer.

Customers agree to pay any duties, taxes, fees, or charges required by the destination country in order for customs to release the package. Failure to pay such charges may result in your order being returned or abandoned by the carrier, and no refunds will be issued for duties or unused shipping fees.

We strive to provide clear communication and ensure your shipping experience is seamless. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us at: info@lestissees.com

PLEASE NOTE

We strive for excellence in our products and customer service, but some imperfections may occur with fabric.

Please note that stains, holes, or blemishes within 3 inches (10 cm) of the edge are considered acceptable.

Stains on the inside of the fabric are also acceptable if they do not appear on the right side.

Please be aware that fabric may shrink after the first wash, so we recommend purchasing slightly more than the exact length required for your project.

We cannot cancel or refund orders once we've cut your fabric. If a refund is necessary, a 5% administration fee of your total bill will be charged.

We cannot offer refunds or compensation for items purchased a few days before they go on sale.
