This iron, made in China, worked for less than a year. Now it shuts off while ironing, and the only way to turn it back on is to replug the cord into the outlet; a few seconds afterwards, the iron shuts off again. Not being masochistic, I will avoid Black and Decker "Professional" irons in the future.

Absolute garbage! For some reason just leaks water all over the garment your trying to iron, has done this since new. Constantly goes into auto shut off mode, even when ironing. Cord length is a joke! Buy something else.

The iron was heavier than I used to. The worst part is that it never seems to be hot enough to iron my cotton shirt. I did used the steam, but it just wasn't working. I returned it, the shipping was not refunded. So, I lost about $7-8 just to try it out. Next time, I would just buy it at the store, you can return it without losing any money

I got this for the wife, "a quilter", one who uses her iron(s). It is titled "professional" yet molded white on white letters on the back are "for household use only". In this case with less than six months actual use the unit decided not to work. Indicator lights light up and all but no heat. "FixIt For Ya" has an appliance repair person responding to someone else s inquiry that B&D engineer their irons to be impregnable, for 'throw away' service. I appears I need to throw it away and buy a Rowenta brand whatever that is the pro-quilters here are talking about

the Black and Decker proffesional steam iron is great, it has more steam and takes out the wrinkles better then any iron I have had and paid a lot more money for. I am very satisfied with this product.
