I absolutely love my Sunbeam "Drip-Free" which is truly drip free and comfy to use; and going on 6 years now with never a problem. It does have the auto off which I need because if the phone rings.... well, you know how we are. Bought it at WMart, about $40.
Have had 2 Rowentas German made ... both croaked, leaked and sputtered. Never again.
