Oh well I quess that is a good safety feature. It can just be irritating.
bigsister, what kind of iron it that one? I wouldn't like that either. I like it only when sitting on the board and not used for about 8 10 minutes like most of them do I think. Oh, well, I am getting tired of looking. I too have a BandD Classic to use until I decide on a new one but right now, of course, my Maytag seems to be doing great!! lol! go figure!
