Steaming issues

Date:April 6, 2012

"Purchased this one on 50% discount, overall functionality was good except two things: the heat mode button is located on the top of the handle and very often accidentally I turned the iron off (pretty annoying); and most important issue was bad steaming, perhaps after Shark's improvment of anti-dripping system, i.e. even steaming set to maximum no water came out until you shake the iron.
I exchanged it but faced the same issue and eventually returned it. Later I purchased Shark Ultimate Professional Iron which is much much better."

"I bought this iron and was very impressed with it when new. Then it died after 6 months. A friend of mine says hers didnt even last 6 months. I wonder if all the people who said it was great still think so? There is a one year EXCHANGE warranty. Dont waste your money on this one. ."

"Worked well but died after 15 months. 12 month warranty. It's an iron...it should last many years..no moving parts. Especially a $100 iron. First and last Shark product I ever bought.

Seems like some last a few years and some a few months from other reviews. Not worth the gamble considering the price."

Do not buy this iron, broken after 15 months.

Date:October 14, 2011

"It is an ok iron bought it on sale.
After less than 16 months, all the lights started blinking and the iron no longer works.

Since it is out of the warranty period, the only place for this iron is to the garbage.

My next iron will not be a Shark, and one without as much electronics."

Good price but quality poor

Date:March 11, 2011

"I purchase the iron a few months ago. Great price, on sale. Tried it the next day. Heated up very quickly but when I tried the spray button, it was stiff and no spray came out. I tried it for a few more days, still no spray, not one drop. Returned it to Canadian Tire, got a replacement. Same problem!
Canadian Tire refunded my money with pleasure. Will think twice before I purchase this brand again."

world's best iron

Date:August 17, 2010

"I've had this iron for the last 3 years and regularly iron my uniforms with perfect crisp results. Don't buy another other brand or models. The stainless steel soleplate is great, retains heat and cleanable."

Best Iron for the money

Date:August 15, 2010

"I don't exactly like ironing especially if using a crummy iron. The Shark delivers. Burst of steam is excellent. It heats up quickly and you can see what the temp is by the lites on the iron. It's heavy enough to do the job but still light enough for ease of use. Water tank holds a lot of water which my old iron didn't. Vertical steam is perfect for blouses or anything with ruffles that you don't want to be flattened. I just ironed a white shirt and it looks like it was done professionally. this is a sure winner in my books."

Too early to give solid review

Date:January 22, 2010

"I have recently purchased this iron. During initial cleaning found the steam action to be very strong. Have used the iron only twice so far, so haven't experimented enough to give a thorough review. Full steam seems to require a bit of time to achieve...so if you are in a hurry, don't expect to get the steam action going...plan to turn on the iron 5 to 10 minutes before you need it. Otherwise the long cord is great! and the water filling bucket doesn't spill and the steam once up and running is really strong."

"This by far is the worst product I have ever purchased. I've now gone through two of these irons.

The first I purchased stopped producing steam after about 2 months. I returned it for another one which completely stopped working after only about 6 months of use.

I will never by another product from this manufacturer again!"

The best iron ever

Date:December 30, 2009

"Ever since we got this iron – the annoying job of ironing has now changed to “easy” and “fun” even our son likes ironing his shirts now. This iron will cut down on the ironing time as you will not need to iron each surface more than once – unlike our old iron that required ironing over and over on the same surface. You will not be disappointed with this one."
