had a Shark Professional iron =didn't last. Recently bought a Black & Decker classic iron on sale for 14dollars & I like it better than any other iron I've owned.

I just had to go look at mine to find out for sure and it is a Black and Decker. I've had it for so long, I can't remember what I paid for it, although I'm sure it wasn't alot, because I just wouldn't for an iron. I like the automatic shut off and I just use tap water when I want steam. Works great. I know it is well over 10 years old.

I agree. Black and Decker is my choice. I just bought a new one. Old one was 15 years old and cost $20. This one was $28 at Target.

Thanx so much to all who answered. Looks like B & D is on my shopping list. I'll be hitting WalMart for sure. I'm new to QuiltingBoard, and in fact, haven't had a chance to do any sewing or quilting in the last 8-10 years, so I'm just getting back into it.

Thanx, again!
