My WalMart Black and Decker died in the middle of a quilt earlier this year. I live 120 miles from any stores that sell decent irons, so running down to the store was out of the question. I ended up getting a Rowenta Master iron on Amazon for $49 (free shipping too). I love that iron! It steams great, gets hot fast, is heavy enough that I don't have to push on the iron, and the tip of the iron is very narrow which I love for small things and getting into small spaces. I would buy this iron again in a heart beat!!

Just a caution about buying from WalMart - look on the bottom/back of small appliances. If it says made for WalMart, it is of inferior quality compared to the same product sold in other stores like Target. It might cost less, but the quality is less than that of their regular items. I learned this the hard way on various small appliances.
