Miele FashionMaster Active Ironing System

IFA was lousy with ironing systems – ironing board, steam machine and iron all in one – but the Miele FashionMaster was clearly the straightest seam among them, so to speak. Like most ironing ensembles, this starts with a fold-up ironing board but with wheels to more easily move it into position, and the ironing board inflates so you don't flatten delicate fabrics. Its steam iron draws from a built-in reservoir rather than the iron itself, has a honeycombed plate to ensure steam is evenly distributed and helps the iron sail smoothly across cloth. It's also got a built-in hand steamer to rid your hanging threads of wrinkles. If FashionMaster makes it across the Atlantic, it'll run around an uncool $1,200-$1,500.
