Review on Enhance Your Ironing Experience with the Sunbeam AERO Ceramic Soleplate Iron in Blue by John Hickey

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works great but I don't like some features

I have some conflicting reviews on these 3 stars as the performance of the iron is great and I really like how it works and how it vaporizes. However, there are a few features that I don't like. The way you have to fill the water tank is cumbersome. You have to use one hand to hold it open as it won't stay open while you fill it. My last ray of sunshine was so easy to fill. Also, the tank itself is on a dark gray background and it's a little hard to tell how empty it is or how high it is when it's full. For some reason they put the fabric dial under the handle, which not only makes it harder to turn. , but it's also hard to see the setting. My last Sunbeam had the dial on top and was so easy to see and use. There is also a mist spray trigger located on the underside of the handle. I think it was meant to be handy, but I liked that it was on top of the handle next to the vapor outlet my old Sunbeam had; it only bothers me when I hold the iron. While the iron works and steams well, I wish I'd spent more time learning about these features because they're clunky and cumbersome.
