| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Don't judge the iron by it's cover...
This iron is such a piece of junk. I bought it because, as with most impulse buys, it was the 'prettiest' one on display. I used it a handful of times; this iron made you dread the job even more than normal. It got hot enough to be dangerous, but not hot enough to remove those nasty wrinkles from your clothes. Over, and over, and over, and over you'd iron--only to have your clothes look like you'd freshly pulled them from the dryer, rather than spent 30 minutes ironing a shirt so it could look so-so. SteamMASTER? What steam? After ironing for 20 minutes, the steam might act like it thought about steaming, give a small 'poof' of steam, and it was done. That was all the steam you got. No steam? OK, just shoot it with the mist button. Sure--if you hold the iron 10 inches back from your clothes. Perhaps Sunbeam figured it would be fun to GUESS where to aim each time you spray your clothes. Well, after using it, oh, probably ten times...kapoot. Dead as a doornail (whatever a doornail is).
<br />In the meantime, my sister was wandering through Wal-Mart, and lo-and-behold, there sat the 'prettiest' iron on the shelf. We obviously swim in the same gene pool, because into her cart it went. She won't use hers because water dribbles out of the holes and from around the soleplate before it has a chance to become steam. There may be more details, but they are unbeknownst to me, other than the fact that she hates hers, as well, and is returning it soon.
<br />Two irons...two horror stories. Not a good average, Sunbeam. | 1 | 789 days ago | Waste of money & energy!
I bought this iron because a friend had recommended the Sunbeam brand to me. In fact, she has had her Sunbeam for 15+ years. It worked for its intended ironing exactly twice. The third time I was to use it, the iron failed to heat at all and this "non-leak" iron leaked all over the floor, the ironing board, and my clothes. I unplugged it and started again thinking it might simply be a glitch. The same thing happened again. And, again. I am returning this excuse for an iron today. Don't make the mistake I did and order this iron! | 1 | 789 days ago | Nice Iron, couple of flaws.
I actually do like the iron, I love the steam shot, but the spray needs to be redone, it never hits my clothes, it always sprays above and beyond my clothes onto the floor. I just don't use that feature. My problem is with the retractable cord, as a previous reviewer stated, you have to wrestle with the cord to get it to fully retract. Well, in doing so, mine broke. I have to hold the cord under my hand now when I'm ironing. Otherwise, it just shoots right back inside the iron. UGHHHH!! That drives me nuts. I guess, it doesn't really pay to try to get a little more fancy with your iron. I'm going back to the good old stand by. | 2 | 789 days ago | LOVE THIS IRON!
I love this iron.......it's good and heavy, retractable cord is nice and it looks great. It's a long iron and covers a lot of area. Steam features are nice. I've had it about 4 months with no problems at all. I use mine about 30 minutes a week. | 4 | 789 days ago | Ditto 1st Review-->Christmas purchase dead already
Bought it in December...has been leaking since the begining of this month...I'm actually here to find a away to get my money back when I felt compelled to leave a review.

<br />There are better ones out there...guess you can't buy quality irons for less than $50 bucks anymore :( | 1 | 789 days ago |
