SINGER Expert Finish 1700-Watt Steam Iron
The SINGER Expert Finish Steam Iron is a fully featured 1700-watt iron that delivers expert garment care. An accurate LCD temperature control alerts when your desired setting has been reached with the perfect amount of steam for different fabrics. The steam is distributed evenly, ensuring fast, efficient ironing and outstanding performance. Innovative steam features help battle stubborn wrinkles: steam in the vertical or horizontal position, burst of steam button, and variable steam temperature from cool to hot. A brushed stainless steel soleplate offers effortless glide and the iron is self-cleaning with an anti-calc for long product life.
A safety feature of 3-way auto shut off allows you to walk away and not worry if you turned off the iron: after 8 minutes the iron will shut-off if left vertical, 30 seconds if left horizontal with no movement, and 30 seconds if it falls to the side. A 360 degree pivoting power cords allows a free range of motion. An open tip simplifies ironing pleats or around buttons. An anti-drip design prevents those annoying leaks when using the iron at low temperatures. The iron weighs less than 3 pounds and has a 94-inch cord. A limited 2 year warranty is included.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I expected an iron by Singer to be...a lightweight. I WAS SOOOOO wrong! I have a 1400-watt German-made Rowenta iron that has been my standard for a long time but I was BLOWN AWAY by the Singer. 1700 watts makes a difference!
The iron has a good, hefty feel. It has a digital readout that tells you the temp and type of fabric suitable for that amount of heat. It also suggests steam or not. It has a very quiet beep that indicates that the iron is up to temp. And it heats up FAST - less than a minute to the linen setting.
And HOT! Oh baby. Ironed 100% linen in nothing flat, one pass with steam, no heavy pressing necessary. The soleplate is stainless steel and was very smooth. It has a nice point - easy to get the corners and edges - and QUICK.
NO dribbling, spitting, sputtering. The water filling hole has a cover so you can't accidentally slop hot water all over your hands or project.
The phone rang. I left the iron at the board, answered, and came back. It had shut itself off, but when I turned it back on it remember the setting I'd left it on. More linen followed.
I ironed cotton. A breeze. Quilters, you would love this!
I give it a hearty recommendation for occasional or heavy-duty ironing. You will not waste time PRESSING and waiting for results. It is SO hot that it does the job for you.
Finally, even though I used a lot of steam the water didn't seem to go down very fast (compared to my Rowenta, which is a water hog).
Thumbs up!

(What's this?)
LCDs are so inexpensive these days that they are now on every other device. The LCD on this iron makes it kind of "cool" while giving you quick information about this iron's temperature settings. It shows vertical bars, numbers, as well as text to display the 9 different temperature levels. Each of these nine temperature levels are for different types of garments::
1. Acrylic
2. Nylon
3. Silk
4. Polyester
5. Poly-Cotton Blend
6. Wool
7. Cotton
8. Jeans/Denim
9. Linen
Not only does the LCD provide information about the temperature setting but it also has three indicators that let you know the status of 1) Steam, 2) Anti-Scale and 3) Auto-Off features.
Steam:
Right under the LCD, it has two big buttons for steam: Left one for "Burst of Steam" and right one for "Cool Mist Spray". You can also use the "Burst of Steam" feature vertically if you are ironing clothes or suites that are hanging. The "Cool Mist Spray" simply sprays cold water from the front of the iron to your garment as you iron. The burst feature is great as it can really get those wrinkles out of those cotton shirts.
Anti-Scale:
There is also a feature called "Anti-Scale". The built-in Anti-Scale cartridge is designed to reduce the buildup of mineral substances in the water which occurs during steam ironing.
Auto-Off:
I think this iron has some great auto-off features. This is a safety feature that will turn off the iron when it's left unattended for more than 8 minutes in vertical (standing) position. If the iron is left on its soleplate or tipped over, it will shut off after 30 seconds with an audio beep to alert you. While it's shutting down, the LCD will flash the "Auto-Off" symbol. To "wake" the iron up after it has been automatically shut off, simply move or gently shake it. Within 60-seconds after you wake it, it will be ready to iron at the same temperature setting it was set to previously.
Anti-Drip:
This feature prevents dripping of water from the soleplate when it detects that the temperature is low.
Although it's a great iron, as with most things, this is also MADE IN CHINA, unlike some Rowenta irons that are made in Germany.

I did a lot of research before choosing this iron. After all the time spent, I really wanted to like it!!
The pros: Not too light, not too heavy. Digital controls. Comfortable handle. Not as comfortable as my now deceased B&D 2020 because the top of the handle is flat rather than rounded, but reasonably comfortable nonetheless. Nicely balanced. Good shot of steam feature. Glides easily. Warms up to or decreases heat to chosen fabric temperature quickly and indicates when chosen temperature has been reached.
The cons: The iron dribbles water and leaks! I get random water spots on the clothes I am ironing then must take care not to scorch them. If I rest the iron on its heel and come back a few minutes later, there is water on the ironing board. Secondly, the steam function works when it wants to and doesn't work when it's not in the mood! One moment you are ironing along with great steam. Then on another part of the garment you are getting poor results only to realize that the iron has stopped steaming. Later it will start steaming again. It seems random. The cons far outweigh the pros and I hope that Amazon is going to accept a return even though the item is in fact opened and used. This is truly the worst iron I have ever used and I have lived long enough to have owned several!
One other point. The iron has an 8 foot cord. Because of the particular location where I iron, this is an annoyance. My old B&D had a 10 food cord. When researching irons however, I did notice that currently even the top of the line B&D has only an 8 foot cord. A con, but tolerable.
For the record - I did read the instructions and I did follow the necessary procedure for first use. Considering the fact that there are several good reviews, perhaps mine is a lemon and you will have better luck. I hate this iron.
