An iron is an appliance used to press the wrinkles out of clothes. The combination of heat and pressure is what removes wrinkles. They have evolved over hundreds of years from simple objects made of metal, glass or other materials that were often heavy and difficult to use. Most modern irons are made of metal and plastic, and have many features such as steam, temperature controls, and automatic shutoff.
Steam provides an additional means for removing wrinkles from clothing. With such success brought to the clothing industry, the
steam iron was invented to remove unwanted creases not only from clothing but of bedlinen and table wear too.
