Standardise position of the steam boost button across different makers of iron.

Petition Details

Using an unfamiliar iron can be problematic as the buttons for the spray and steam boost button are not in the same place across manufacturers. This means when wanting a steam boost you might accidentally spray water everywhere.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This would be a decision for iron manufacturers, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition asking the UK Parliament to change the law, to require iron manufacturers to standardise the position of the steam boost buttons on all irons sold in the UK, if that's what you want to happen.

Alternatively, you could write to iron manufacturers to make this suggestion.
