SINGER SteamCraft Plus 2.0 Steam Iron

This is a solid iron. I haven't used a heavy iron since I used my mom's iron. The color is a nice touch. I like the design. I saw good and bad reviews, so I decided to review the instructions all the way through just to make sure I won't miss anything. They recommend doing a Self Clean once a month to clear out build up. To use iron first time on a towel or something durable. Before adding water make sure it's not on, unplugged. And a bunch of other common sense instructions. I like the extra long cord. The base when upright, is a nice rubber base so it won't slide off a hard surface. They give you a measuring cup for the water, I like that. There is a dial with 3 settings, Self Clean, steam and no steam. Steam only works on 2 highest temp settings. The water door is plastic, same as the top of the iron. The water cup has a nice spout for pouring. I can see without the cup it would be easy to overfill, so I appreciate the water cup. When you plug it in, the red light comes on and blinks on the mode button. Temperature settings are easy, push mode button to go up in settings, nylon, silk, wool, cotton & linen. Directions say if you're not sure, start with lowest setting and try that first. I tested on a cotton towel first as recommended. Then onto to a satin tank. So I switched temps from cotton down to nylon, as I had no idea what satin is. Takes awhile for the iron to cool down to a lower temp, but I was able to tell it was too low of a setting. The wrinkes didn't come out, so I went up to Silk Temperature, which worked nicely. The temp setting will blink until ready also. I really like the soul plate, I sew alot, and like the tip of the iron with the weight, before I had to add weight when ironing because it was a light iron. This will be so much easier. I like the water spray button it casts a nice light even spray for a good amount of time. Very light mist. The steam button gives a nice blast, it only works when you are on the highest 2 settings, linen and cotton. And, you need to pause 2 seconds between pushing it. The handle has a comfortable fit. And it seems when not in use the cup fits in the handle nicely. I feel the features are good on this iron. Not my first iron, I've only used light weight cheap irons before. This is well made. I recommend it. Will update my review if anything changes.
