Hi! I just bought the Reliable V100 iron today and saw where if you press the steam volume selector button and hole it for 5 seconds, you can over-ride the automatic shut off and tahe iron will hold the selected temperature. Hope this helps! You've probably figured it out already. LOL!


with the Reliable V 100 and absolutely love it. Have had it for about 8 months (not long I know) but we do a lot of ironing! I long arm quilt so I iron backs and fronts of all of those - plus I have 2 groups that come over monthly (5 people) and my mom's senior group all comes over to iron and cut, so it gets a lot of use. I have a couple of friends who havd had theirs longer and they are still happy. It does have an auto shut off, but in the directions there is a way to turn that off. Unfortunately ours got thrown out and I haven't figured it out yet.[/QUOTE]

thanks, i posted a question on Reliable irons and no one would even read it!
