The best I have ever used Jul 25, 2010 This iron is by far the best I have ever owned or even used. It heats very fast, produces alot of steam, never spits or spudders, easy to clean, and it's a true joy to use (honest it is). I went through alot of irons (more than one ended up sailing out my front door out of pure frustration) before finding this one. It is a little on the heavy side, but it is such a wonderful iron I wouldn't dream of complaining about that. You can't go wrong with this one.
would recommend Jul 11, 2010 Good price. It steams very well! NICE long cord. I like how it alerts you when the correct temp is reached. Easy to use.
Have been using this iron for over a year. I am a professional seamstress/tailor, and would recommend to to anyone.
One Merchant that is a rip-off Jun 10, 2010 The one merchant on Amazon selling this $50.00 iron for $169.00 is a total rip-off!!! I'd like to get this iron, (based on reviews) but it seems like the supply has dried up....so apparently this supplier "Shivser" should be SWINDLER thinks they can take advantage of people and limited supply by making a huge profit!! Wise up and google the iron - you can get it at a much better price.
Best I've owned so far...UPDATED! Jun 09, 2010 6/9/10: I purchased this Black & Decker D2030 Auto-Off Digital Advantage Iron from BBB over 3 years ago. At that time, I paid less than $50 for it. This has been, by far, the best iron I've owned in my 40+ years. I actually like heavy irons, they just seem like they do a better job on heavier fabrics. This iron is not too heavy but enough to feel like it's doing it's job. The spray and steam features work great. Every so often it tends to drip but I believe that may be because if the water fill is maxed and the top is not completely closed, the back and forth motion of the iron splashes a little water out of the top. I actually just discovered this 2 weeks ago. Otherwise, with the hopes of not jinxing myself, this iron continues to be an excellent choice.
UPDATE-7/18/10: Obviously I jinxed myself. My iron died yesterday. The digital panel suddenly started flickering and fading, while the iron was turning off & on. Thought it may have something to do with the electrical cord but wiggling it did nothing. Within 2 minutes, my once best iron, departed. Now I have to do the grueling task of researching for a GOOD new one..ugh!
I was nervous, but this has been a great iron! May 28, 2010 I went back and forth for a few weeks (which is so unlike me!) before purchasing this iron. I had read just enough poor reviews that made me hesitant to order. I've had this iron now for 8 months and have used it at least three times per week (lately it's been more like 5-6 times per week since I haven't been traveling as much). I have absolutely no complaints so far. It's such a smooth iron - it really glides over the fabric. I have had zero issues with the cover to the water well, and I'm really having a hard time understanding how others said it was flimsy and/or snapped off easily. The instructions say not to use tap water (which is probably standard for most / all irons, but I never paid attention), so I bought a jug of water and use that to fill it. The steam is great from this iron - very powerful and effective. I like the digital display and have not had any issues with it, but I'm on watch since a few other said theirs stopped working. If this does stop working, the iron will pretty much be unusable since you have to set it every time (once you turn the iron on, you need to push the button until the display shows the setting you want - if you want setting 4, you push the button 4 times). The area where the cord connects to the base of the iron is also very nice. It prevents any tangling and rotates very easily as you move the iron so it doesn't get in your way. My last iron was a Black and Decker as well and I just loved it. I hated to replace it, but had issues with the cord after five years of near daily use and had to replace it. So far, I'm wishing I would have upgraded to this unit sooner! :) Give this a try, it's really a great iron.
ps. I'll be sure to update this review if I begin to have any issues with it.
