I purchased this iron one month ago, thinking it would not spit water out on my clothes. I had a Norelco previously and used it for several years. The Norelco did not spit water out. It just wore out and quit steaming, so I started looking for a new one, could not find the Norelco brand anywhere, so I chose the Singer thinking it would be a good one, not so. I like everthing about it except the water spit. I hate it when this happens, and it does it continually. Do they even make an iron that will not spit on your clothes ?
