Corby 7700 Pants Press, Beech

Purchased this from 100&Home through Amazon after contacting the merchant and assuring myself of reliability. I was not disappointed. I have written fewer than a handful of reviews over decades of being an Amazon customer, but Viktor deserves one. He is responsive and promptly shipped as promised from his U.S. warehouse. The product itself does everything that it should. Makes a knife-sharp surdy crease and is easy to use. That did not surprise me because I had a previous one that lasted a few decades. The electronics have been updated to add a countdown display, and the useless tie bar is eliminated, which probably helps keep the price reasonable for what the unit does and its life expectancy. I am about to buy another from this merchant through Amazon as a belated holiday gift.

I have used the Corby pants presses for years and they have proven to be durable and do a great job of keeping a sharp crease in my pants. I got this unit to go in a second home and it has an even better timer than the one I already had. The rest of the unit is sturdy - no loss of quality or change of design over time.

Unfortunately, this item will always leave creased wrinkles on my garments. I purchased this item as an alternative to ironing because I am lazy.I found that it does a great job at making old creases look like new, and it might even make new creases, but my biggest issue is that there's no way to apply tension to the pants while closing them in the press, so I always have a couple huge unwanted creases pressed into my garment.I resolved this by using the product in conjunction with wrinkle release spray. I'll press my pants for 45 minutes, take them out, hang them up, and hit both sides of each pants leg with some wrinkle release and rub them down and leave the pants up to dry.The bottom line is that the product isn't a miracle machine by itself, but it's incredibly useful to me when used in conjunction with other products.

This is my second pants press and I could not live without one. My last one was broken in the move. This has so many more features which are nice. Allows you to leave the house with crisply pressed pants every day. Next best thing for a gentleman to have if you do not have a butler.

This unit does not press pants well at all. There is no tension holding the pants in place. The older model was better but the pressing pads wore out and Corby has no replacement parts available and has no service in the US.

I've been using Corby for years. Just went from the 5500 to the 7700 after 14 years of use. This presser does exactly what it says it will. Puts a nice press and a reasonably sharp crease on your trousers. Personally I press for 45 minutes on one side (facing the foam pad) then I turn the trousers around and press the other side for 45 minutes. Then let I let them cool before taking them out of the presser. Great product.

I have some wool/cotton(65/35 %) pants that do get rather wrinkled after a wash. This is a lot better to get the wrinkle out, just put it in and let it go at it. 5 pairs of pants a week, simple kind of plug and play.

After removing dress pants I always have a herringbone wrinkle pattern which looks like the heating elements in the unit. Anyone else having this problem. If so, can it be corrected? My previous Corby lasted 12 years and I didn't have this problem.
