Customer Review: Black & Decker Steam Iron
Summary: 5 Stars
Black & Decker Steam Iron D6000.
I Love it! It has the weight needed to get a good press without having to go over the fabric numerous times. Gets the job done quicker and faster than the lightweights.
I am very pleased with it.
Customer Review: Black and Decker Steam Iron
Summary: 5 Stars
My last B&D iron finally died after a long and useful life. I ordered this one solely on the basis of my experience with the last one. I wasn't disappointed. It has been updated a bit, but still remains the easiest to use and is a great value for a moderate price.Customer Review: Black&Decker Iron

Customer Review: Comparison with its best selling sister model D2030
Summary: 3 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Black & Decker D2030 has been the best selling iron on Amazon. I own both D6000 and D2030. This review focuses on the comparison between these two models. I will not repeat the features of D6000, which can be found in product spec or other reviews.
1. Steam: D6000 automatically controls the amount of steam based on which fabric type you select. It is not adjustable. I found that the amount steam comes out O.K. I usually set it too high on D2030, and I have to refill it more often. So I like this feature. But one thing annoys me is that the steam is set to off when the iron is on. I have to remember to turn the steam on every time.
2. Weight: It is heavier than D2030. That probably explains why it does a slightly better job than D2030. If you constantly use the iron for an extended period of time, it may become a con.
3. Water-filling: You have to hold the iron flat to fill the water. This is a very weird design. All the irons I have used in my life fills the water with it held upright. They might design it in this new way to fill directly under faucet. But for me, I still cannot fill the water right under at the sink. It has two problems: it is difficult to see if the water has reached maximum line. I often I overfill it. Once it is overfilled, the water will drip out of the water-fill cover when it is put upright. It is because the opening of water-fill cover now faces down not up. I found this very bad. They should not change a well-accepted and proven design. Also it does not come with a handy water bottle like D2030 does.
4. Cord length: It is two feet shorter than D2030. I really don't know the reason for it. I have to move my iron board closer. They really should not shorten the cord length.
5. Backlit LCD display: Both D2030 and D6000 are backlit. But I have to hold D6000 at an angle to see the display clearly. I found this a very bad design change. I can see the one on D2030 clearly at any angle.
All the problems with D6000 are all minor. I may keep using it just because it does a slightly better job than D2030. But if you are in the market for a new iron, I will suggest you get D2030. It is $20 cheaper, and it is a better iron overall.
Customer Review: Did I get a lemon?
Summary: 1 Stars
This iron disapointed me greatly. It worked for two weeks. Then all of the sudden, out of the blue, it took forever to heat up to number 5 level. And when it did finally heat up, it started LEAKING water all over my clothes. This morning was the last straw, it leaked BROWN water all over my work clothes. Bought it at walmart and got the extra warranty but have NO idea how to claim it. Very disapointed in this product.
