BLACK+DECKERBLACK+DECKER Vitessa Advanced Steam Iron, ICR2020, Even Steam Nonstick Soleplate, Auto Shutoff, Tangle-Free Retractabel Cord, Green

This is a great iron. It is actually the second one that I have bought - as the first one died after 12 years.I love the fact that it has a retractable cord, it is easy to clean, it provides the option to either mist or steam your clothes while ironing. My previous one was blue - this one is green.... which is fine. It is easy to use, the settings are clearly understandable, so that you know which setting is appropriate for your fabrics. I would give this as a gift.

Easy to use and easy to store.

This iron did a good job of tackling wrinkles on a variety of fabrics. If that was the only criteria, I'd give 5 stars.However, 2 things were not to my liking. First, this iron is long..almost 13 inches. Second, the cord caught the fabric and had to be adjusted. This is due to the position of the retractable cord. If the opening for the cord was placed on top of the iron, the cord wouldn't keep catching the fabric.If you want the retractable feature, you'll have to accept the tangling. If you want to iron clothes without stopping to move the cord and straighten the fabric, then choose another model.

I love the retractable cord on this Iron. This is only my second iron my last one I had for 30 years. The fact that it turns itself off is a plus, I worry about my dog sometimes knocking over the board and starting a fire. Safety features are a plus.

excellent and easy to use. I would like it better if it were a bit smaller, but I suppose it wouldn't work as well. It is kind of bulky.

The retractable wire does not retract properly, and because of that, you drag it while trying to iron.I had used the iron twice when that happened. I got in touch with Amazon thinking I would return it, but Amazon had used a dealer for this iron. They asked me to cut the wire so that the number on the prong would show when a take a pic of it and they asked me to pay for the return. I refused to pay for a product that was deficient. They agreed then to let me not pay for the return. (Then I discovered that Amazon had written that the return is free with this iron!) I had to take pics of the didn't know how to do, took me a looooooooong time to learn) and then send the pics to them. They told me I have to wait 7 to 14 days for the new iron to arrive at my door. I am not sure the same problem will happen again with the same brand of iron. With Amazon in charge, I would have returned the iron and gotten a different model or brand.

I usually don't write reviews but I am so impressed with my new iron I just had to. It works beautifully and I recommend it highly!! Can't go wrong!

I was looking for an iron that had a retractable cord and didn't leak, so I bought this one. My old iron was a Black and Decker and worked well for several years until it started leaking. This is not the same quality. First of all it is impossible to tell how much water is in the tank and I have spilled water on my ironing board more than once. Secondly, it turns off at will, even only a few minutes into ironing. Thirdly, it's difficult to see the heat settings, since they are right up under the handle. I don't iron very often anymore, so I kept this too long to return it or I would.
