Everything that makes an iron ergonomically comfortable.

The most important factors that influence the ergonomics of ironing are the posture, the perceived effort, and the frequency of movements and the ease of use. The iron of the Braun CareStyle 7 and CareStyle 5 is meticulously designed to address each ergonomic factor and to deliver a comfortable ironing experience – even for the longest ironing sessions.

The handle suits your posture. Not the other way around.

Thanks to the ideal angle of 90° (± 15-20°) Braun’s unique reverse open handle is posture-compliant and allows for a more relaxing right limb posture².
