 does the job November 4, 2008
we got this iron after our last one broke and we are happy with it. it does the job and we've had no problems.
 Awful November 1, 2008
I was prepared to really like this iron. It is from Black & Decker which is usually pretty reliable.
My iron is almost exactly 8 weeks. After shutting off from time to time without apparent reason as another reviewer has said, it died two days ago. Just before it died, the non-stick surface of the iron started melting and messed up a white shirt of mine. It just is not worth one dollar of the price.
I am completely disappointed.
 Value & Performance October 30, 2008
My daughters iron died right in middle of doing laundry; much needed item delivered in record time. Absolutely delighted with price and performance of product
Worst iron I have ever encountered October 21, 2008

The iron sprays hot water on the item being ironed, the user, the floor, and the ironing board. It does not balance well, easily tipping when sitting vertically, making it dangerous to use. When not in use for a few seconds in vertical position, and even while actively being used, the auto-shut-off light comes on (supposed to happen when iron is not in use for eight minutes in vertical position/30 seconds sole plate down) and iron turns itself off.
Additional annoyances: you cannot tell when water well is full, the water well lid must be held open while filling -making this operation very difficult. The dial symbols are small and pale gray on white making them difficult to read. The iron makes loud clacking noises. All and all, the worst iron I have ever encountered.
 Ok, for the price October 12, 2008

I read the reviews of several more expensive irons, but they all seemed to have one or more fatal flaws and/or be outrageously expensive. This isn't my main iron, just the one in my laundry room, so I wasn't looking to spend tons of money. There are three features that I really don't like, but can live with given the low, low price. (The three problems are: the VERY poor visibility of the water window (mentioned by other reviewers), the settings dial is very small and hard to turn (it would be a truly fatal flaw for anyone with hand/finger strength or dexterity issues - beware!), and (just mentioned by another reviewer) the fact that when the iron's auto-turnoff acts, the only way to get the iron back on is to unplug it and plug it back in. This is not described well in the directions, at all, and I actually replaced the wall outlet before figuring out it was the iron, not a faulty outlet.) This iron heats up fine, though, and steams well...and again, given the low price, it's OK.
