Hamilton Beach Steam Iron & Vertical Steamer for Clothes with Scratch-Resistant Durathon Soleplate, 8' Retractable Cord, 3-Way Auto Shutoff, Anti-Drip, 1500 Watts, Blue

This iron is perfect. The design is sleek and attractive. The heat is evenly distributed. I love that the cord recoils with the press of a button. I highly recommend this product. It is an excellent buy.

Fabulous Grest price worth every penny! Highly recommend

My Rowenta iron is always being borrowed. I bought this iron as a backup. I love the retractable cord! This iron works as well or better than my old iron. I may let my daughter and her friends keep the Rowenta.

Pros: Great steam! Burst of steam is terrific. Easy to read settings.Cons: Disappointed in the weight. Heavier than I expected. Flap to pour water into the iron is VERY difficult to open. I have to get a letter opener to help or ask husband.Neutral: Heat and shut off up time is as advertised. As a quilter, I would have liked longer shut off time, but can't complain as it is how the iron was presented. Also, other irons have included a fill cup - this one did not. Not a big issue, just surprised.Other than the weight and the ability to get water into the iron, it works well.

Literally the best iron I've ever purchased. Love the retractable cord. Doesn't leak or leave stains. I'm a heavy user of it and have never had a problem.

I love this iron. I have a seamstress/embroidery business. I am ironing all the time, multiple times a day. Because I work with a lot of embroidered items, I am constantly destroying irons with stabilizer, spray glue residue, glitter, sequins, etc. I need an iron that is*reliable and dependable with heavy use*has a reasonable shut off system (don't want it shutting off every 90 seconds, but I don't want it sitting there for 15 minutes either, you know?)*self-cleaning (it helps keep stuff from building up and preserves the life of the iron -- learned this one the hard way when I tried to cheap out and just get a basic iron)*gets warm really fast*has a reliable high -- and a reliable low -- temperature setting*has great steam output*doesn't weigh a ton.No small order, right? This iron is that iron.I noted that a few people complained that retractable cord irons tend to break the retractor. I didn't care about this, if it broke, fine, if it didn't, fine, so I disregarded that complaint when comparing them. Since receiving the iron I have noticed no issues with the cord retraction system.Another complaint I noted was that the base of the iron (where the cord retracts into) is tall and makes the iron overly cumbersome. I'm not gonna lie, it IS a bit bulky. You get used to it in about 37 seconds. It's no biggie at all. If the iron was heavier because of it, that might be an issue, but I have no complaints about the weight of the iron. It weighs less that either of my last three irons and none of them had retractable cords so I don't think it's making any appreciable difference!The iron has a lightning fast response time, it heats up quickly and evenly. When you need to reduce the temperature, it responds quickly as well, the temperature drops more quickly than my last iron.The cord is plenty long enough for my needs. The shut off works great and the blinking light tells me it's shut off and not putting out heat, so I like that.All in all, I could not be happier with this iron and would definitely buy again.

Weight not to heavy, steams output very good! Nice Iron gets hot fast.

Performs Well With An Easy Glide and No Sticking. Bought the same one 7 yrs ago and was very satisfied with it. So when the old one needed to be replaced (due to accumulation of hard water deposits), I decided why not stick with the same one that proved to be an excellent iron. Just need to remember to clean it on occasion and it will probably last a lot longer. Nice Features and Reasonably Priced.
