My son bought a Black and Decker, used it for a couple of months, and it leaked water at the bottom seams. The B&D online site says to get rubber cement and caulk the seams. One shouldn't have to do that! Of course, son lost receipt, but I'm going to get my hands on the iron and just mail it back to B&D, telling them they can just keep their defective product. We're not caulking anything.
