Title: There are way better irons
Product review: I bought this less than a year ago and it has already broken down. Just stopped heating. I can't seem to find a iron that lasts anymore. I had a Black & Decker that lasted about 10 years. I bought another B&D for $50 after a recommendation in Consumer Reports. That one last a year and I bought this one. Aside from just no heating there are other things that I don't like about this iron. 1. It's hard to fill water. Water spills all over the place when filling. My B&D had a little hole that allowed air to escape, so no spillage. 2. The reservoir cap is flimsy. You have to be careful to not break it off. 3. Because it has a retractable cord, the cord doesn't stick up away from the iron so it gets in the way. 4. The cord is too short. Doesn't give me enough to manuever around. I think I'll go back to a cheaper B&D iron if I have to keep replacing one every year. Maybe I'll get lucky.
