Original – A modern electric steam iron made by Russell Hobbs.
Reason
This is a typical product shot isolated on white as you might get from a stock photo agency. This image is high-resolution, sharp and in focus from front to back. The angled profile shows off the steam plate as well as the handle, at the expense of the controls. We currently have no featured pictures of small domestic appliances and this category of images is poorly covered by WP/Commons. Btw, the soleplate has a textured speckle finish -- that's not noise. I hope you like it.

  • Comment: My only niggling issue is that the reflection is cut off. I get that you wanted it so it doesn't look like it's floating, but perhaps a short shadow would have achieved that effect. So I dunno.. Matthewedwards :  Chat  00:56, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - OK, well as I said it was just a minor thing that I noticed and since no one else has an issue with it my qualm has been relieved. Matthewedwards :  Chat  03:06, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Good quality, high EV. Didn't notice the shadow until it was pointed out, so I don't think it's that big of a deal. Clegs (talk) 09:30, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I'm missing where the reflection is cut off, so unless someone can point that out more specifically to me and the cut seems bad, I'm supporting. Pinetalk 11:00, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support -- I have no issues with the reflection. Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:55, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Suppprt per comments above --extra999 (talk) 03:43, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, I love the way the angles converge near the tip. And that it's purple ... not a color we usually think of when we think of irons. And the detail. It's so crisp. I can see some CA along the edge near the top at the highest resolution but ... it's so slight that I think it would be impudent to base an oppose vote on it.

  • Support I bought this very model and in this colour last year based soley on aesthetics. Saffron Blaze (talk) 19:19, 28 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Crisco 1492 and Daniel Case and Saffron Blaze's reasons. Alborzagros (talk) 07:06, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
