  Black and Decker Iron August 25, 2008
I highly recommend this iron, I've had rowenta irons in the past and trust me this Black and Decker iron truly out rates the rowenta proffessional iron I used. I'm amazed at how the creases stay in the clothes even after a wash!
 Cord Problem August 23, 2008
Because of the location of the cord, the one I have started shorting out if the cord isn't in a certain position. It is past the warranty. When I called the company, they informed me there is no authorized service in my area and I would have to replace it. I liked the iron except for this flaw.
easy and powerful August 16, 2008
after going through several irons that broke or quit working, i'm so glad i chose this one.
pros -
-easy digital control
-powerful heat that works but doesn't threaten delicate fabric
-finally an auto-off function that works how it's supposed to!! (it shut off once when i had to walk away from it for several minutes, but never shuts off while i'm using it)
-great steam functions (i don't do much bulk ironing, but it's perfect for those hard to smooth dress shirts)
-the price seemed reasonable (not as cheap as some, but much less than the really high end models)
cons -
-i have to refill the water cavity every time i use it?? honestly, as long as it doesn't give out on me like some of my old irons, i can't say anything bad about this one.
 Automatic Clean annoying August 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The iron works well until the automatic cleaning displays. I don't seem to get much ironing done before the cleaning message is displayed and then it takes several instances to get it to turn off. The instructions say to let the iron heat for 3 minutes before starting the cleaning and then 2 minutes to cool once you're finished. That's over 5 minutes to get through the cleaning process and sometimes it has to be done several times. It seems to require cleaning fairly often. Very annoying.

After checking Consumer's Report, I decideded to buy this iron.
Thus far I have been pleased. I lack strength in my hands and have a little trouble pushing the spray and steam buttons, but otherwise am pleased with the iron. I have had it a month.
