Black and Decker Retractable Cord Iron Reviews

We all want wrinkle-free clothes to wear to a work function, to night out with your love ones and even to school. This can not be done by sticking your clothes under a mattress and hope that the next day you’ll have crease-free clothes to fear. The most effective way to achieve wrinkle-free and pleaded clothes that will stay in shape is to invest in a steam iron. One iron in particular that’s easy to use, affordable and some special features are the Black and Decker Retractable Cord Iron.

The proprietary steam technology automatically regulates and optimizes steam levels based on the fabric setting you select using the single-dial control which is located in front of the unit.

The TrueGlide nonstick soleplate glides smoothly across all fabric types, and the retractable cord makes for fast and easy storage with the touch of a button. Other features include:  a self-cleaning function, burst of steam, and vertical steam. A full suite of useful features makes BLACK+DECKER the trusted name in clothes irons.

Retractable cord

To enhance you’re ironing experience the company has managed to manufacture this model with a retractable cord. This extra long cord automatically retracts and extend base on distance the iron is from the wall socket.

With this feature you will be able to safely store the appliance away without the need to manually roll up the cord. This retractable cord automatically extends and retracts with a push of a button.

TrueGlide nonstick soleplate

Modern steam iron models rely on different types of soleplates. Some models are manufactured with stainless steel soleplates while others is made with ceramic soleplate. All of these soleplates have one thing in common; they glide smoothly over any type of fabric.

Most models even come with a precision tip to access hard to reach places like between buttons, collars and cuffs. All these features can be found in the Black and Decker Express Steam Iron with Retractable Cord. With the TrueGlide nonstick soleplate and precision tip you’ll find that your ironing experience has significantly improved with a quicker turn around time.

Smart steam technology

Now you can take the guess work out of ironing with Black and Decker’s Smart Steam Technology. This newly developed technology automatically optimizes steam levels based on the temperature you select for different types of materials.

When making your temperature selection the Express ICR05X Steam Iron will generate the precise steam level to reduce the risk of damaging delicate clothing.

Anti-drip

We have first handed experience from steam irons that produce water drips while ironing. This can be a headache for those who need to get to work on school.

Wet clothes take time to dry iron, but with the Black and Decker Retractable Cord Iron you’ll be on your way in no time. This model is manufactured to prevent dripping by closely related temperatures.

Vertical steam

The Express Cord Reel Iron is perfect for student living in a dorm or persons with limited floor space. As a multi-function steam iron the Black and Decker Express Steam Iron with Retractable Cord can be used as a steamer to steam out wrinkles and creases from hanging drapes and garments.

3-Way auto off

For safety you can rely on the 3-way auto off function which automatically kicks in when the appliance is left unattended for 30 seconds on its side or soleplate, and after 8 minutes on the heel rest.

This will prevent the iron from overheating and will also save you on electrical bills. When the iron is left unattended on its soleplate your delicate cloths might get scorched.

Moisture control buttons

The easy to access side-by-side moisture control buttons, one producing a gentle spray of mist to a specific area on your garments while the other offers a burst of steam to penetrate deep into fabrics to loosen the stubborn wrinkles.

Comfort grip

A soft ergonomic rubber grip is designed to relieve stress on the hand and wrist while performing extended ironing times. This feature is especially designed with the elderly in mind and those who suffer from hand and wrist injuries.

Fabric guide

Pros:

• Lightweight and sturdy

Conclusion

The Black and Decker Retractable Cord Iron is not the Best Steam Iron on the market but it will definitely live up to the expectation of a cheap steam iron. The most impressive feature that you can expect from this model is the lightweight design even though it is engineered with a retractable cord which sits in its housing at the back of the unit making it look bigger than most irons on the out there.
