Tefal Iron - UltraGlide 1749 —
Tefal Iron-UltraGlide 1749. My old Westinghouse iron sputtered and died. Went to Sears and bought this iron. The packaging was A-1. Plug sealed and had to cut the plastic band, yellow tag on chord that distilled water was used during testing. A cute cup provided. Nevertheless, Instructions say to use regular home water and not from a home softening system. I disagree as filtered water will not leave minerals over a period of time. However, since I just bought this iron time will tell. Iron has simple, easy features and one could figure out how to operate iron without reading the directions. Sole Plate seems fine and did not stick to cotton garment. I have just used this iron once but it seems A-1 with an adequate warranty. Price was reduced $2 and comparable to Walmart and Target.
