Comment:
3 irons failed in one month: 1st iron - steam button for additional blast inop. 2nd and 3rd irons - spray button inop. When those buttons did work at first, they worked very well--probably long enough for CR raters to endorse. A shame, since it handles and feels great while using, and 3 steam settings provide ample steam during ironing--it's the steam blast button that fails. Returned to Sears and am researching an alternate.

Comment:
I have had this iron for just over a year and it has stopped working. After turning the iron on, I start to iron, put it on the ironing board while I move the shirt and it is turned off. This iron is really heavy and very difficult to move around. It does have a 3 year warranty so now I must locate the receipt and return it to Sears. Do yourself a favor and find another iron!

I ordered this online. It did not work from the moment I plugged it in. It did not steam at all and the spray did not work. I have returned it. Sears did not make the return process easy. I could not get it replaced - I had to ship it back and place another order. I will purchase a different iron.
