Black & Decker X50 Travel Pro Iron, White

Love this little iron for my quilting retreats. Just the right size. Easy to use and lightweight. Price very reasonable.

I love this travel iron (dry or steam) it is light and easy to use. I used it in my Quilt Class and it sure beat hauling around my heavy Rowena. It pressed my fabric well; then my blocks; and I am now using it to iron my binding. We plan a trip to Alaska this Summer and I will definitely take it with me in the RV. I highly recommend this product.

This Iron was much better than expected it heats quickly and provides a nice steam. I do not yet know how it works on heavier fabrics but for cotten shirts and non-jean material I have no complaints on it. Works great the Iron does not lock when closed but other than that I have no problems with it.

love this little guy. does everything i wanted a small iron to do. great for using when sewing and pressing smaller pieces instead of having the big iron on and using electricity unnecessarily. good price too.

This iron is poorly designed and does not deliver steam as advertised. 1. Iron does not have a manual steam option. All you can do is fill it with water and put the steam setting on max - and this barely produces steam, you can't force more steam bursts. 2. The hinge for the handle is weak. It slips and folds down while you try to use the iron and is flimsy at best. 3. If you are buying it to travel think about weight - it is far heavier than other models. 4. It is nice that it has a converter built in - but I never used it b/c I would never take this piece of junk with me on a trip!

Small and compact making traveling with it very easy. Also gets very hot which is a problem I have had with other travel irons. Between the heat and a great working steam systems, it gets rid of wrinkles in clothes very well.

I bought this as a replacement for the X10, which had been inside a suitcase that was stolen from me. I found this one much more difficult to use, primarily because the handle, which rises up from the top rather than folding up from the side, doesn't lock securely in the up position. Frequently while using the iron the handle will partially collapse, either on its own or because I bumped the release button (which is all to easy to do). This jerks the iron, pinches fingers, and makes me fear burning the clothing or even myself. Furthermore, the cord of the X10 could be wrapped around the collapsed iron when not in use for easy storage in its box, but the shape of this one makes wrapping the cord unwieldy and does not allow it to fit in the box this way...so one must figure out how to fold and stuff the cord in each time one puts it away.

This product is a smaller design, which makes handling easier than larger, heavier ones. It works pretty well, does the job, however, I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong, but it seems to "sputter" out too much water when I just want it to steam...
