I got this for Christmas from my Mom. It's so much cheaper than other major brands. It works well and has held up, the only thing I don't care for is the steam function. It's not enough steam for when you need it.

The iron has 7 different settings for different kinds of fabric and a chart on its base that tells you what setting you need to choose for cotton, wool, etc. For safety, the iron has the automatic shut-off feature that will turn it off after one hour of work. The shut-off works whether you are using the iron or not, so if you are having a long ironing session it can turn off on you right in the middle. This can be inconvenient, but I rarely have large loads of ironing, so it does not bother me too much.

This is a good, reliable, and easy to use iron. I have had it for years and its still works like the day I bought it.
