Hamilton Beach Steam Iron & Vertical Steamer for Clothes with Scratch-Resistant Durathon Soleplate, 8' Retractable Cord, 3-Way Auto Shutoff, Anti-Drip, 1500 Watts, Blue

With so many options, I tried this 1. Works very well, & I got it at a steal when I opted for the damaged box option. Not very heavy and retractable plug is great

Perfect iron. Simple to use and love the retractable cord. This brand last forever as my first I had for 12 years before replacing.

Lots of steam, not heavy. Purchased for a theatre costume department and it is working out well. Cord length is good and like I said lots of steam!

Easy to use and very effective. Sole complaint is it is a little clunky, although not heavy.

Works great

I love this iron. I have a seamstress/embroidery business. I am ironing all the time, multiple times a day. Because I work with a lot of embroidered items, I am constantly destroying irons with stabilizer, spray glue residue, glitter, sequins, etc. I need an iron that is*reliable and dependable with heavy use*has a reasonable shut off system (don't want it shutting off every 90 seconds, but I don't want it sitting there for 15 minutes either, you know?)*self-cleaning (it helps keep stuff from building up and preserves the life of the iron -- learned this one the hard way when I tried to cheap out and just get a basic iron)*gets warm really fast*has a reliable high -- and a reliable low -- temperature setting*has great steam output*doesn't weigh a ton.No small order, right? This iron is that iron.I noted that a few people complained that retractable cord irons tend to break the retractor. I didn't care about this, if it broke, fine, if it didn't, fine, so I disregarded that complaint when comparing them. Since receiving the iron I have noticed no issues with the cord retraction system.Another complaint I noted was that the base of the iron (where the cord retracts into) is tall and makes the iron overly cumbersome. I'm not gonna lie, it IS a bit bulky. You get used to it in about 37 seconds. It's no biggie at all. If the iron was heavier because of it, that might be an issue, but I have no complaints about the weight of the iron. It weighs less that either of my last three irons and none of them had retractable cords so I don't think it's making any appreciable difference!The iron has a lightning fast response time, it heats up quickly and evenly. When you need to reduce the temperature, it responds quickly as well, the temperature drops more quickly than my last iron.The cord is plenty long enough for my needs. The shut off works great and the blinking light tells me it's shut off and not putting out heat, so I like that.All in all, I could not be happier with this iron and would definitely buy again.

This is a very nice iron, but before you buy it, compare the size to what you’re used to using. I had to find a different place to store it, but kept it because of the quality.

All the features of a good iron work well however it is a little heavyer than some modles we have had.
