First time plugging it in and iron might already be ruined because someone had the brilliant idea of putting a plastic sticker on the plate. I’d never seen this before or had to read instructions on how to use an iron.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Seems like a similar review in that two days ago our iron just stopped heating. We did not use the iron that often so this is very frustrating.

Purchased in 2016; 2 months outside of the warranty it stopped working and will not heat up. I can live with its other annoyances: difficult to see if the water level has reached the fill line, water sometimes sputters out, iron can make a popping sound when heating up to steam can shoot out unprompted -- but I still expected more than two years of light use out of this. Looking at review sites like the Wirecutter, this iron apparently has reliability issues. Black & Decker should recall it.
This iron was great while it worked, but sadly one day it simply stopped heating. There was no catalyst for this. The iron now turns on but there's no heat or steam whatsoever. Of course, it was out of warranty so I wasn't able to get a replacement.
I wanted to post this review to warn other buyers because I would expect an iron to last longer than a year or two, but it seems a lot of products these days are cheaply made and only last long enough for the warranty to expire. It's a shame, as the iron was good while it lasted but this has definitely put me off purchasing any more Black and Decker appliances.

I bought this iron 3 to 4 months ago and loved it. However yesterday it stopped in the middle of ironing. It will not heat. I've tried everything and I don't know what to do. I'm very disappointed.

This iron heats up quickly but when it comes to using steam, it sputters out and ruins the fabric. I have to wash out the soiled area which is not only time consuming but very irritating. I've only had this iron for only 6 months and it's not worth the money. I do not recommend this iron.

I bought a Black & Decker iron last November but it stopped working after just a few uses. Black & Decker was very helpful and warrantied the unit. I just received the replacement today and, so far, am very pleased with it. Thank you.
