don't bother...
The total "wireless time" you can iron is 2 minutes... takes longer than that to fully flatten a sleeve for ironing... plus the charger needs counter or ironing board space... as a corded iron it's bulky and heavy and lacking in features of any number of much cheaper irons...
Poor quality iron
For many years, I had a Black and Decker cordless iron that was a gem, so when it died, I expected to find similar quality in this one. Boy, was I disappointed! It's difficult to place in the holder, it began falling apart almost immediately, and it doesn't heat consistently when placed in the holder. The other day, after ironing for a couple of hours, I was ready either to take a sledge hammer to the thing or to head for the nearest bar to drown my frustration (and I don't drink!). I definitely would not recommend this poorly made item and plan to order a better brand as soon as I finish writing this review - cordless irons are still tops in my book.
Smartek ST2000 Iron
I bought this product in 12/06. I was very pleased with the concept of the Cordless Iron it was easy to use and was nice not having that cord to drag around while in use. Problem was that it is creaked and squeaked and did not feel sterdy. After about 4mos it began to come apart the handle, water tank, and docking station. Also the base of the docking station deformed from the heat. What I noticed at that point that the manufacturer supplies no warranty information and only the manufacturer address information w/ no phone #s or website. I've now had this product for a little over 1yr 1mo it has now cease to function. I paid over $60 for this thing, it is good to see that they've decrease the price, but it not worth the investment to me at any price unless it can last more that 3yrs min
