Another question about irons...
#1
My iron is driving me insane. I guess I'm a slow poke, but it always shuts off just as I'm ready to use it and then spits all over as it reheats. My question: which irons do not have auto-shut-off? I know there are some Rowenta models, but I am hoping to find other brands.

I found if I rest my auto shut off iron with the front end facing down the auto shut off does not shut off! I had an iron rest shaped like a ramp and I turned it around so the front end is pointing down. When I'm done with the iron for the day I stand it up and it goes off. It may work for your iron too.
Never turn on the steam until the iron has reached full temp. That causes 99% of spitting and leaking as you found out. :thumbup:
