I had an Oliso until a few months ago, I was ironing and smelled smoked and poof it caught fire. I used the fabric I was ironing to smother it until my husband used the fire extinguisher. I bought a Hamilton Beach Durathon from Walmart for $49.00. I had just started ironing, didn't have 6" done when this happened and I ruined 3 yards of fabric.Oh well, no one got hurt and the house didn't burn down. Oliso won't do anything for me because it was out of warranty.
