Black & Decker Digital Advantage Review

I have been through countless irons.     I finally concluded that I needed  a heavy iron that did not have a teflon coating.

The Black and Decker Digital advantage has served me well for over 4 years now - that's a record for me.     It does not have teflon on the plate.     I'm wondering now what purpose the teflon serves other than to flake off on my clothes.

The B&D has automatic turn off which is great for me because I frequently get distracted - it beeps to let you know it is turning off - a nice reminder to go finish up what I was doing.    It also beeps to let you know when your temperature setting has been reached.

It weighs about 4 pounds which is heavy enough to cut down on having to press so hard to get the wrinkles out of clothes.

I don't use the steam feature - I spray the clothes then iron them.

The price at amazon right now is under $35.  The Rowenta I was looking at runs about $75.   The features on the B&D are comparable to the Rowenta at a much better price.
