I love this iron! Ironing is not my favorite chore but this makes it much more torable and easy to use. I previously owned a Rowenta and prefer the BLACK & DECKER. It glides beautifully, doesn’t spit out water like the Rowenta, which is so over rated. I’m so happy with my new purchase! You won’t be disappointed.

I replaced my VERY old iron with the Black & Decker D2030 Auto-Off Digital Advantage Iron, so I am comparing my new iron to a twenty year old iron. However, the D2030 can iron in less than half the time as my old iron. I don’t even need starch. The steamer works GREAT with a variable steam dial to select the right amount of steam. It also has a spray function. This iron is very simple to use and I am very pleased with this purchase. I would recommend this product.

This will be a short and sweet review. As a guy I hate ironing, but find it necessary to keep the work shirts and pants looking good. This iron heats up very quickly, glides easily and has an incredible shot of steam that would please Tim Allen, “Argh, argh, argh”. My sisters $120+ Rowenta has nothing on this baby.

This iron does a really good job of ironing but it has a major design flaw. The cover over the water well breaks really easily. I had read reviews before I bought it where people stated they had the same issue. Like a dummy I figured they were just rough with it and was sure it wouldn’t happen to mine. I was wrong. The third time I used it, although I was very careful, the piece that holds the cover shut broke off. I have to fill it and tape the cover down with masking tape. It’s a real pain. And water still leaks out of the water well all over my clothes. You would think a company like Black & Decker could come up with something better than this. I’d be willing to pay more to have a better cover. 5 stars for ironing power and ease. 2 for design.

I have owned Kenmore Irons, and a top line Rowenta that was recently dropped – replaced by this B&D model. It holds more water than others, there is no gimicky controls – very basic – press the button for the right textile setting and go. The sole plate is smooth – steam is powerful. I iron all my jeans – most come out of the dryer with hard creases – this iron presses them all out. Delicate items – poly and blends – no melting! My old Rowenta melted everthing it touched – and then the $15 cleaning kit was a hassel with Rowenta – not to mention all the spitting from the steam holes. Black and Decker has made a fantastic iron that well worth the money! Don’t hesitate – just buy it.
