Like it better than the expensive iron it replaced.
3 of 3 found this helpful After owning another well-known expensive brand which quit working after a little more than a year, I decided to give this iron a try. I have only had it a few weeks, but so far really like it. First of all, I LOVE the retractable cord. It makes storing the iron so much easier. It also irons heavier fabric like cotton (which is mostly what I iron) very well. Because the plate is coated, it does not slide as easily as a non coated plate, but I am guessing easy clean up will make it worth it. This iron is a tad heavy, but if you have no physical limitations, I wouldn't let this be a deal breaker. One last thing - because the cord is retractable, the iron is a bit taller than other irons when sitting on it's base. If storage is an issue (the shelves in my laundry room cabinets do not adjust, so it will not fit in one of the cabinets), you might want to reconsider. That is the only reason I gave this iron 4 stars. So far though, it seems to work a lot better than the German-made iron it replaced and I am hoping it lasts for a long time.
