Amazon.com Product Description
Lightweight and stylishly designed, this household iron produces steam without dripping, spitting, or leaking, even at low temperatures. The unit's Spray Mist system dampens fabric to aid in removing wrinkles from heavy fabrics and for setting creases. In addition, its Shot of Steam function provides an extra burst of steam to deeply penetrate and smooth out stubborn wrinkles. Holding the iron in a vertical position allows for using it as a steamer on hanging garments or drapes.

For safety and convenience, the iron offers Motion Smart automatic shut-off. With the iron plugged in, the power indicator will light steadily. If the iron gets left in a horizontal position or accidentally tipped over, it will automatically stop heating after 30 seconds. If the iron gets left in a vertical position (on its heel rest), the iron will automatically turn off after 15 minutes. In both scenarios, the power indicator will blink to show that the iron has stopped heating and will continue to blink until the iron gets unplugged or reset. To reset the iron, move it back and forth and allow it to reheat for two minutes. Other details include a stainless soleplate for smooth gliding, a temperature-adjustment slide bar, a steam lever with choice of steam levels, an extra-long 12-foot cord, a self-clean button that removes minerals inside the iron for longer lasting steam performance, and a storage strip indicator that tells users when it's safe to put the iron away. The iron measures 11-3/8 by 4-5/8 by 5-3/4 inches.

Just okay...3
We've had this iron for about a year and I am looking for something new because it just doesn't perform very well. It is very lightweight (I'd prefer something a little heavier) and doesn't seem to get hot enough for most of my ironing tasks. The steam does work well and I haven't had many leaks.
