A HOT iron with a long, long cord

The Sunbeam Turbo steam iron is a great iron.  With 1500 watts of power, it's get HOT.  Nice and HOT.  I absolutely love the 12 foot cord.  I don't think I've ever seen an iron with such a long cord.  This is a huge plus if your electrical outlet is not conveniently located and you need an extra long cord.  The iron puts out a good amount of steam and there is a variable setting for the amount of steam you want.  The burst of water spray is a great feature because if you need a little extra moisture to get out a stubborn wrinkle, this will help.  The iron has little rubber edges on the resting bottom which keeps it from slipping around if you set it on a slick surface to cool off.  It also has a 3-way shut off feature so if the iron falls over, it will shut off in a short time and if it is upright and not being used, it will shut off after 15 minutes.  This helps if you leave home and wonder if you turned the iron off.  Overall, this is a great iron.

A strong ironing board, my only problem is the cord from the iron is constantly getting caught at the open gap between board and the iron stand

Could have just a little longer cord, but that is not too much of a drawback. It arrived 2 days after it was supposed to, but I'm not sure whose fault that was... UPS or Amazon. It does have a temperature setting on the front. It needs to be turned up rather high (175) to keep the hot dogs warm.

Something to tend the fire pit that was longer and better built. This is a really well done piece of Iron, and short of leaving it in the fire to act as a branding iron, it does not get hot, moves logs, grabs wood and acts as any good tending device should. I recommend highly.

Highly recommended (esp. compared to a wired iron and having to find an extension cable and outlet every time something needs soldering in an installation)

Go get yourself some Eneloop rechargeable batteries too, fast charging and great battery life in this thing.  Heats up faster than my 40W plug in iron does.

Power cord only 8' long.  My older, cheaper iron has a 12' cord, makes a big difference.  May be a deal breaker as I don't think I want to bother with a extension cord!

Very long cord which is what I needed
Strong and durable.

I often find myself wanting a cordless soldering iron, so when I found that there are butane ones, I couldn't resist. It melts solder quickly and burns for a very long time on one tank of fuel. If you put the gas flow to the max setting the entire tip will glow red, so it definitely gets hotter than your average electric soldering iron. It also works great as a torch. You can also buy various tips for blowing hot air, crimping etc.

If you want the best, get this one.

As a bicycle commuter, I was looking for an iron small enough to carry in my bag and use for touching up after removing my helmet.  I had tried a butane cordless iron but I don't like that it uses what is essentially lighter fluid ignited with a spark!  Another downside to the butane ones, mine came in a carrying case that breaks the unit into parts before storage, and it's necessary to reassemble it before every use - plus there's the added inconvenience of having to wait until it cools down before putting it back in the plastic case.

The Jet Setter is the only cordless iron I've found which is rechargeable using an electrical outlet.  Charge it up at home and it's good for 30 minutes of use.  It has three heat settings, but I use only the highest setting, which is less hot than any of the corded irons I have at home. (I can tell by how hot my hair is after running the iron over it.)  I could never use the Jet Setter for my ordinary styling routine at home because it doesn't get hot enough, but for away-from-home touchups, it does the job.  I should also mention that I don't wear my hair straight - I try to maintain volume at the roots (yes, this is a challenge when wearing a bike helmet!)  Although this is a flat iron and not a curling iron, one can hold it at a bit of an angle to make use of the iron's edge to mimic the effect of a large-barrel curing iron.  All the other cordless and butane curling irons on the market have barrel sizes that are way too small for the effect I want.

The Jet Setter gets hot only on the interior plates, not on the exterior casing.  This is a plus because immediately after using, it is  safe to set it down anywhere, or just close it up and replace it in the heat-proof fabric carrying case.  The carrying case is black and small enough to be carried very discreetly to the ladies room if that's where you'd use it.

Biggest downside - huge price tag - $99!!!

Cord frayed after a few months of minimal use.  It needs a longer rubber tube to protect the cord where it attaches to the iron.  Other than that major design flaw it is a great quilters iron.  Hot and heavy.

Its ok, the cord def needs to be longer, i cant seem to find an area where I can plug this in without balancing it on something else, so...
 It heats up fast, is true to size and shape.

this iron gets VERY hot, so be aware that the settings you're used to may be too hot for this iron. I have melted / burned a couple items in the first few times i used it.

I needed a replacement cord for my on-the-counter broiler pan.  This fit the bill!  It is 6 feet long -- not the three foot cords that hardware stores sell.  It also has a grip at the appliance end which makes removal of the cord from the unit much easier.  Heavy Duty cord.  You won't go wrong with this item!!

Need a small travel iron, this one is perfect. It works great with steam support. The long cord  is a plus when using in your hotel  room

I am happy with this iron-so far. I've only had it for a month, so I can only hope that it will continue working for at least a few years. It gets hot enough to get out wrinkles and has plenty of steam. I looked at every other iron before I settled on this one. I also looked at all of the reviews, including recent reviews for Rowenta irons. My previous iron was a Rowenta Effective, which lasted for a few years, but current reviews state that the quality is not there anymore, so I took a chance with the Hamilton Beach. I truly didn't expect the Hamilton Beach to work as well as the Rowenta, but was pleasantly surprised when I started using it. The Hamilton Beach feels a little bit heavier than the Rowenta, but in functionality, it has the same, if not more steam and is just as hot. I've had no problem with the cord winder as of yet. The only thing that I don't like about this iron is that you have to use a control to turn it on before every use. It's a digital control, and I worry about it malfunctioning some time in the future. It does spit sometimes, but I am unsure if that is because I try to use the iron before it is hot enough. It also gets hot enough to use really fast-I'm not exactly sure of how long, but it seems to be about one minute. I use this iron about 5-6 days a week for about 10 minutes at a time. All in all, I consider the iron to be a good one-so far.

Works great! Love the long cord.  It warms up quick and very hot so be careful. I already burned myself.

There are several cordless irons stored in the depths of my storage room, scorned and forgotten.  This one will not end up there -- I love it!  It gets HOT, it stays hot long enough to do a reasonable amount of ironing before it has to return to the base, and I am totally pleased with it.  My $180 Rowenta steam generating iron is retired, permanently.
