Don't buy it! problem only comes after months of use!!:

Bought mine a year ago from JCPenny. It was just as good and impressive as those 5 star reviews here. After one year of use, the problem of 1 star reviews come to me. Regret that I didn't check online review before I bought it. My previous 20 bucks no name one lasted 9 years and is still going strong. This one is a piece of crap that is well timed to ruin your day sometime later. Please DO NOT buy it!!

AWFUL! JUST AWFUL! RIPOFF GALORE:

This is the first time I have used this iron. I bought it for my summer house, awaiting the occasion when I might need an iron. Well, so, I'm on vacation and thought it might be really special to iron my sheets after washing and drying them. Hard could THAT be? Make the beds look really pretty! I turn on the iron, and pick it up and notice the red auto-shut off light is blinking. I do everything. Empty out the water. Adjust the dial. Pull out the plug. Plug it back in.

Of course there's no warranty on the iron anymore. I would have lived with the... more info

Not bad:

Good iron, holds lots of water and is easily filled and produces lots of steam. Bad point is that the temp. dial is easily turned by mistake. I have ironed with this twice so far and both times I accidently changed the setting two or three times during the ironing session. If you glance it with your finger it will move and it is located in a spot that is easy to come into contact with when handling the iron. Aside from that, it appears to be a good iron thus far.
