Mimi, what did you do with that broken yellow Oliso. I would think your heating element is still good. My feet still work.

I too think that we give up too soon on things that the manufacturer should make good on. I would let them know that you are a dissatisfied customer and will be posting on quilting boards to let other quilters know. This might stir them to make it right.

Oliso irons but won't ever buy one now. I hate dealing with companies that give a run around when their products fail. I'm not a cheap person but I came across a cheap iron a Black & Decker Travel iron at a thrift store for $5 & am still using it with no complaints. I have bought another one same price & never have a problem. If I ever do, I'll toss it without guilt then go look for another cheap one. Thank you everybody for the Info. |
My Oliso died early, overheated to the danger point, then never heated up again. So I use a cheapy Black n Decker that has lasted me 7 years so far.

I wanted one of those after watching Jenny Doan but the reviews were not good. I have a cheap Panasonic that's lasted for years.
|
I bought another one, a grey one. From Amazon. The yellow one I got at a LQS. I just got so used to the pop up feature and a fire is much more costly than the iron.

I'm so glad you posted this Battle Axe. I too have had issues with my yellow Oliso. I thought it was something I did or didn't do. When I first got it, it would heat just fine on the cotton setting, but no longer. I went back to the Black and Decker as I read about so many issues about the high end irons. It's ok but I wish I had one that was hotter.
I had questions about the Panosonic staying hot. I was at a workshop where there was one and it kept going to auto-off. I have been happy with other Shark products, I may look into that brand. |

I took your advice and wrote to Oliso.
