I am sitting here looking at my Iron. I just finished using it. I use it quite often!
I am happy to say Mine is a Black and Decker. I have had this iron since 1996 when I got it as a wedding present! So it is 15 yrs young and works as well as when I first got it.
It is a little banged up, it can definitly take a punch. Daughter is wanting to replace it which is why we came to your thread. The plastic is cracked from a few to many falls.
If she makes me replace it, I would probally go with another B&D
