This is a very poor iron. I bought my brand new from Walmart, used it 4-5 times and it doesn't work. Plugged it in green light came on but there's no heat. Looks as if something has burned out on the plate. Now Blacka and Decker doesn't want to replace it. Use can tell just how much an iron has been used just by looking at it and this one is still brand new. I will never buy anything Black and Decker again.
