Questions

GLATT ONE or GLATT PRO?

ONE is 1000 W, 600 g, one temperature, no screen. It folds smaller than a paperback and it's the one you actually remember to pack.

PRO is 2000 W, 780 g, three steam levels and an LCD. It heats in ten seconds instead of fifteen and pushes 30 g/min of steam instead of 20, which is the difference between refreshing a shirt and getting a crease out of a wool coat.

If you travel every other week, ONE. If it lives on a shelf next to the wardrobe, PRO. If you're buying for someone else, ONE — it's the harder thing to get wrong.

Why does the PRO have a screen when you say you hate screens?

Fair. At 2000 W with a 180 ml tank there are exactly three things worth knowing: how long until it's hot, what level you're on, and whether it's about to run dry. The display shows those three and nothing else. There's no app, no pairing, and no firmware update for a steamer.

Is it actually hot enough to be an iron?

ONE holds 150 °C, PRO holds 160 °C — both inside the standard pressing range for cotton and linen. ONE is 1000 W rather than the 2400 W of a home iron, so it takes a second or two longer per pass. On a shirt you won't notice. On a bedsheet you will.

Steam or dry — which do I want?

Steam for anything woven and stubborn: cotton shirts, linen, chinos. Dry for anything delicate or printed: silk, synthetics, graphic tees. On ONE the trigger switches between them. On PRO, the low setting does the job of dry mode on delicates.

Can I take it on a plane?

In carry-on, yes — neither has a battery. Empty the water tank before security, and expect the occasional swab, because both look unusual on an X-ray.

Will it work outside Europe?

Both are built for 220–240 V with a Type F plug, so a simple plug adapter covers most of Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. Neither will work in North America or Japan on 110 V, and an adapter alone won't fix that — you'd need a step-up transformer, which we don't recommend for a heating element. The PRO at 2000 W is especially unforgiving here.

How long does a tank last?

ONE's 120 ml gives roughly eight to ten minutes of steam — a suit and a shirt. PRO's 180 ml gives around six minutes on the high setting, or closer to fifteen on low.

What's the handle actually doing?

Locking and rotating. Flat against the body for packing. At 90° it becomes a pistol grip for vertical steaming on a hanger. At 180° it's a conventional iron handle for pressing on a flat surface.

Do I need the mat?

If you only ever iron at home on a board, no. If you iron on hotel desks, kitchen counters and other people's tables, it's the difference between a crisp shirt and a conversation with a landlord.
