Summary: Awful
Comment: I was prepared to really like this iron. It is from Black & Decker which is usually pretty reliable.

My iron is almost exactly 8 weeks. After shutting off from time to time without apparent reason as another reviewer has said, it died two days ago. Just before it died, the non-stick surface of the iron started melting and messed up a white shirt of mine. It just is not worth one dollar of the price.

I am completely disappointed.

Summary: Worst iron I have ever encountered
Comment: The iron sprays hot water on the item being ironed, the user, the floor, and the ironing board. It does not balance well, easily tipping when sitting vertically, making it dangerous to use. When not in use for a few seconds in vertical position, and even while actively being used, the auto-shut-off light comes on (supposed to happen when iron is not in use for eight minutes in vertical position/30 seconds sole plate down) and iron turns itself off.
Additional annoyances: you cannot tell when water well is full, the water well lid must be held open while filling -making this operation very difficult. The dial symbols are small and pale gray on white making them difficult to read. The iron makes loud clacking noises. All and all, the worst iron I have ever encountered.
