why does my iron not spring back up when I sit it down on the ironing board

there is an "on" and "off" button on the heel of the iron that controls whether it will spring back or not - this button must be on in order for it to rise when you sit it down on its sole plate

Two things: check the little switch on the heel of the iron - it might have gotten turned off. Sometimes after a while they just stop working. Don't know why. I sent one of mine back to Oliso and they replaced it.

I've never had any problems with mine, it's still working just great. sorry.

I really think you got a defective one. That defeats the purpose of the flat iron if it can't close!

Sorry, we're still in the remodeling process and I haven't used it yet for actual ironing. However, there is a fold in the cover fabric where the ironing board bends in half for storage. I expect to add thin padding or a towel when I use the ironing board, but I had to do that with the full-sized board I had before, which had a much thinner cover pad.

The pad has a padding between the outside metal appearing fabric and a cloth lining, separating the padding from the outside and the lining. The padding cannot be seen and the lining prevents direct contact with the ironing board. There is nothing can I can see that would stick to your ironing board. I love it!

Interesting, my feet retract as soon as I take hold of the handle. I'd contact the manufacturer or amazon about returning the iron.

It happens with me as well because while ironing I always press on the steam lever underneath the handle. Because this iron consumes lot of steam. It's normal. And I do not fill the reservoir till the max or else it will spit water, so I just fill half of the tank and yes after a shirt and a half I have to fill it, not fun but at least feels good to iron with good steam.Oh and always use distilled water, no tap water

We have the same issue. I was thinking about ironing the felt on a low setting and seeing if that helped.

I can only guess since I never heard of this problem. Check the iron that it is seated properly and held tight,m m

To date, this has not happened. I did add additional padding to the ironing surface. I like the spacial ironing surface and adjustable height. The metal work on the one end seems superfluous; the cord often gets caught on it.

When you first plug it in it will not heat up unless you actually press the button(s) selecting which fabric/temperature you will be pressing. If you are idle for a while and the iron is not being used then the iron shuts itself off. I have only had this iron two months and it is already malfunctioning - while I am ironing/pressing, it will shut itself off and I have to re-press the button selection to get it going again. I am looking into buying an iron with a separate water resevoir so I can have continuous steam while pressing.

I too have noticed that sometimes. I think it has a lot to do with the angle of the flat iron. Or how much hair you put on the flat iron. If you put a small section of hair on the flatiron and position it in the middle of th blue pallet, that seems to reduce the chaces of that snagging thing. Yes; its sort of annoying and it can be a problem. Still a great flatiron I think!

Don't seem to have the same problem. Could it have been twisted at some point? The hinge may have a loose feel to allow you to close it with the batter on the iron. The will allow the top to sit level for an even cooking surface.

Iron rest is basically parallel to board, although it might be slightly going up. I rarely use it preferring to put iron on board itself. I also rarely use the hanger hanger. If you need pix, email me at kuehn.jennifer@gmail.com.

Mine went "Ka-Flooey" after a few uses. Just kept going up and down, up and down.....I contacted Amazon and my money was refunded. They told me not to send the iron back. I really wanted to get a good Oliso iron. My first one leaked and the "back leg" still drags. That one did not come from Amazon, unfortunately.

I bought this iron in october and like two days later it broke.. then in a store they told it was fake, so maybe thats why your iron stop heating.
