I had one and it finally died on me. Had a Rowenta years before that and it blew out my power cord. Scary. Now I have a Black and Decker one. Registered it so maybe it anything goes wrong, will get replacement. I just ordered the small "travel" iron Steam -fast. hasn't come yet but hope it is good for pressing blocks. the shark over heated and melted a small plastic button on my Walmart iron rest. now I must keep that covered so not to ruin my new iron. I wonder if there are any "good" irons out there anymore?
