I have a Shark Euro-pro that I LOVE because it gets HOT! It has 1700W. Most irons only have 1100-1200W. (How hot it gets.) Yes, mine leaks water, too.
But I've just learned to set it on a wash-cloth when I'm not using it to absorb the water. I have to refill it everytime I go to use it, but since it gets so hot, I feel it is a small price to pay.
I got mine at Goodwill for about $2.
