Does it has a steam shot off so i can use it for dry iron too? Is there a continuous steam switch that locks ,not to hold down steam switch always while steaming vertical?

No, there is no "on/off" steam switch; to dry iron, you do not use the steam button and the unit will not send steam to the iron. You would need to hold the button for continuous vertical steaming, but it is not a hard button to hold down. Puts out a serious amount of steam!

I really have not used it enough to know for sure. On my old one, if it was on steam setting, steam sort of flowed out of it but to get a lot I had to push the button. My new one seems to do the same.

Not sure what is meant by on/off switch, however, I would say no. The center dial has an off position, and you turn it to the right to set your temperature. It does have a fail-safe off switch if you leave it on for over a certain amount of time. Yes, steam can be used on a variety of temperatures, and there is one setting for dry iron.

No steam however, I keep a spray bottle near me and it works great. Iron gets hot fast and does have an automatic shut off. I have never burned myself using it.

In the box you will find the base which holds the steaming mechanism and its hose and a variety of attachments. Also, the cloth, washable "pockets," to slip on the attachments are enclosed. On my steamer, there is no "on-off" switch, so I plug in my steamer to my own electric strip so I can flip the steamer on and off. When you go to the website, you can find more details about the attachments in the box, if my response doesn't answer your inquiry.

The button is an on/off switch. If you turn it off, no steam. Nice, if you had to stop in the middle of the job to tend to something else.

Yes, there is a small hole to allow steam to escape. I've had mine for several years, use it regularly, and find it does a great job.

Once the unit heats enough to begin steaming (less than a minute), it steams continuously. There is no trigger to pull or hold to keep the steam flowing. The knob regulating the steam flow does turn easily and a few times I have accidentally decreased the steam flow to lower than my desired setting.

Yes, power steam, and burst of steam. There is also an adjustment on the top of the iron for low, medium and high steam settings. Very satisfied with this feature of the iron. It also has auto shutoff.

This iron does have both a steam and spray feature. I just used both for the first time this morning.

Yes it has variable steam control knob that you can move to provide more or less steam power. Great machine and much more better built than the MC1275.

I am pretty sure you can't. I always use it though and it works great. If you don't press on the steaming button while you iron steam won't come out but it's addictive and now I can't iron without pressing on the steam button anyway. :).

the on and off switch is part of the dial. Steam can also be used at lower temperatures. I'm very satisfied with this iron.

The grey lever just above the handle is the steam release valve. When it is pushed, a strong jet of steam escapes. When it is released, the steam stops. It is very efficient. The nature of the steamer requires that you hold it to use it, so there is no continuous steam of steam. If you wanted to make a steam tent or something, you could use tape to hold it down, I guess, but the steam is forceful, so it would not be a gentle steam that would escape. There are many attachments, though, that disperse the steam in many ways. I hope this helps, although I could probably be more effective if I knew what you wanted to use it for.

It has worked perfectly, the steam is great. I do not iron much anymore (like many folks) but I really like the automatic "off" switch. I have had no problems.

Yes its a steam press. It has a small plastic water tank on the base that allows steam pressing. You can use the press without the steam feature. Everyone in my family unit uses it and it has performed well.

There is no steaming function, you have to use it with dry hair, and personally for me worked better that curling iron;)
