After trying 2 different Rowenta irons and finding they leaked and spit all over my ironing, I decided to try this Singer.
The first one leaked and spit. However, my perusal of the reviews demonstrated that I had approximately a 75 % chance of getting a correctly functioning one. So I returned the faulty one. Amazon had a great price on this iron to start and replaced it at no additional cost to me. Very nice deal! It works better if you don't fill it to the max line and don't slosh the water around. Allow it to start steaming in the ironing position off of the item to be pressed, so if it does spit it isn't in contact with your item. My old Sunbeam no drip iron performs better but the digitals are turning the heat up or shutting the iron off while in use.
Update on this iron's performance 2/1/2013
After only four uses, this iron began to spit and leak spotting and streaking the fabric. It is supposed to be able to steam even on a cool blend setting, but it was malfunctioning even on the highest setting. I'm very disappointed. I'll just have to go back to dry ironing. Don't risk buying this iron.
