Steam Iron for Clothes with Retractable Cord, Vertical Steaming, Anti-Drip Design, Spray Mist and Auto Clean Button, 1200W

I love this iron. I bought a Black and Decker in 1990's the only problem with it is that the soleplate is damaged and it sticks to everything. I decided to get another one that I hope will last as long as that one has. The weight on this iron is perfect for me. It is considerably lighter than my old one but still has weight. I have old boxes of fabric that I am using to make quilts and is not just cotton but different kinds of polyester combination materials, some are stretchy and some are not. It seems to iron quicker and I have not burnt or stuck to anything yet. It is so quiet I keep thinking it is not working. I use starch to make the fabric harder and when the residue sticks to the soleplate I can wipe it off with a dry sponge and keep on keeping on. It also says that you can use tap water instead of requiring distilled water. I really like that it has color. It has a spout that make it easy to put water in and I can see where the water is and how much is there. So far it has not radomly sprayed out steam when the iron is moved so I haven't gotten burned yet.

Beautiful iron. Well made. It has a good size water reservoir and it's easy to use. I like the retractable cord. I like black and decker irons. The last a very long time. It heats up fast and gets wrinkles out well. I use mine alot for crafting. It's great on wool. It has many great features.

This iron heats up quickly and does a great job smoothing out wrinkles. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and glides effortlessly over fabric. Clothes look crisp with minimal effort. That said, the cord is a bit too short, which makes it tricky to use if your outlet isn’t close by. I also noticed a small amount of water leakage when it's upright—not a dealbreaker, but worth mentioning. Still, overall a solid iron that gets the job done well. Just wish the design was a bit more practical.

I've always liked Black+Decker items, and this iron does not disappoint! I will say this iron makes my old one look like a kid's toy: it's much bigger than I anticipated. But ... it heats up very quickly and the steam feature is quick and measured, making my life easier with getting my ironing done more quickly. This is one of the best products I have used, and the quality is phenomenal.

This iron is VERY nice! In fact, it is the best iron I have ever owned! The engineering effort that went into the design of this iron is quite apparent. (I am a former engineer and can attest to the outstanding design for a household item.)

Fantastic iron. Vertical steam and flat stem, works great. Use only distilled water.

I've had this iron for a few weeks now, and overall it's been decent. I like the lightweight design and good value for money. The retractable cord is nice, but it does get stuck sometimes and can be a bit annoying to deal with. My main issue with this iron is the temperature control. It's not very intuitive to set the right temperature for the type of fabric you're ironing, and the dial on top of the handle makes it hard to see what setting you've chosen. This has resulted in me burning some clothes or not getting them hot enough. Additionally, I've had issues with water leakage from the iron. It's not a huge problem, but it does spill some water onto the floor when you're filling it up. I'm not sure if these are isolated issues or if other people have experienced the same problems. Overall, this is an okay iron, but it could be improved in terms of temperature control and cord retractability.

I like this iron. I have noticed it does seem to leak. The first thing I noticed was I hadn't secured the cover properly over the fill inlet. I reconnected the cover and still noticed some dripping as I ironed on the 4 setting. This makes me think the steam when I put the iron upright causes a small amount of water to come out and drip down. All in all it seems to work really well. The cord retracts nicely. The iron glides nicely over the fabric I've ironed. One of the issues I had when deciding to purchase this iron was that my existing wall mount storage would not work. I tried searching mounts on Amazon. I could not find any that were directly recommended for this iron. There were however many to choose from. I finally found the one shown in the pictures with this review. Note: I do not plan on using the ironing board hangers on this mount as I have the board in a different location on a different mount. Therefore, I cannot comment on the ironing board mounting. The mount I bought on Amazon is: ZTFORUS Large Iron Holder Wall Mount, Heavy Duty Iron and Ironing Board Hanger with Removable Heat-Resistant Silicone Pad for Easy Clean, Steel Structure. My old mount was a Rubbermaid that was too narrow. It mounts to the wall with two screws. When I went to mount the new one, I found that I was able to use the two wall anchors from the previous Rubbermaid holder without having to drill new holes. All in all, I recommend this holder for this model of iron and probably many more of the same dimensions.
