Ironing Blues
I've abused my Black & Decker (steamxpress 680) iron for 10 years, and it has finally reached the end of its lifespan. It's still functional for some quick uses, except the auto-shutoff feature is possessed. Heats up great, makes a lot of steam, but the second I move it horizontal to iron, the auto shutoff kicks in. Now as I read reviews for B&D and Rowenta irons, it appears that all of the new models have issues with their auto shutoff, too. Ugh.
A few questions:
1) anyone know how to disable an iron's automatic shutoff feature?
2) anyone know of a quality iron that doesn't have an auto shutoff?
3) anyone have an especially awesome iron that they can recommend?
