arrived promptly. looks good works even better. so far it has proven to be a very reliable iron and shuts off as it should if I forget to turn off.

Not good...

Pros: Light and it's really gliding when you are ironing
<br />
<br />Cons: It doesn't do it's job at all. Even if i turned up to the max heat setting, I can't even get the shirt iron properly. There were still lines after a few irons, even with steam. I returned the product eventually and got black & decker, which works so much better although it's heavier.

Stick with stainless steel plates

2009-05-05, Dimitri Poursanidis,

I bought this in December of 08 and the sole plate is already ruined leaving residue on my clothes. I use only distilled water in the iron. I'm not going to even bother having it replaced I'm just going back to the stainless steel irons.

Looks nice, but has issues

2009-04-29, s. beaumont,

What an attractive iron. Beautiful on the outside, but the inside needs work. It leaks when the iron hasn't reached a high enough temperature. The steam seems to function when the iron is held upright, yet doesn't provide adequate steam in the horizontal position (used when ironing).

Good Quality, terrible iron

2009-04-28, G. Murphy, Rhode Island

You can tell this is a quality iron, it doesnt feel cheap, but this iron is down right frustrating to work with. It ruined a pair of pants I had because the setting was too high, but that NEVER happened to those pants with my other irons since I've had those pants for years now. Plus I'd like to note that I did NOT leave the iron on the pants..as soon as I touch the pants it singed them.
<br />
<br />Whats worse is there is ALWAYS fabric getting stuck on the iron, no matter how much I clean it just continued to get residue stuck on it. Then when i started steaming the darn iron sprayed brown stuff on my clothes...after that I was thru! In the garbage it went!
