I have to be honest i have never liked to iron clothes so a great iron that works well at smoothing my clothes is a must and this iron delivers. i love that it has an automatic shut off feature in case i forget to turn it off, the steam works wonders against wrinkles, and the sole plate is heavy duty and keeps my material in place. the swivel cord allows me to move around my clothing easily. This is a classic iron that is made to last for a very long time and i am thrilled with the ease of use, design, and style. I highly recommend this iron!
