Velocity Auto Control Steam IronThe Velocity 270IR uses our patented 2 heating element and micro pump technology to provide our most advanced level of steam output and temperature control with 8 pre programmed settings. Spitting and leaking are over as the 270IR turns the iron's water into steam before it reaches the soleplate. Sensor technology means you have steam on demand when you need it. The anodized soleplate is the hardest, most scratch resistant, and best gliding material
