Is there a way to get just the iron? I have had mine for almost 2 years and the iron is leaking and dripping water.

The iron is not available on the market as a stand alone item to the best of my knowledge. EuroFlex, (Monster), has US corporate headquarters in New York, my suggestion would be to contact them at their corporate office and see if they may be of assistance. When I bought my board I wanted a spare cover in case of an accident, wear out, etc., I contacted their headquarters in New York and ordered one, it arrived within just a few days. They are very courteous and very prompt in their actions to assist. Footnote: This is the best ironing system I've ever had, could not be more pleased!

It may be possible, but the impression I got when I contacted the company was that they did not provide support for this model. I intend to rewire the base so I can turn on the vacuum/blower with an external switch. Then I can use any iron.

I had one for years until I dropped it one too many times. The replacement I bought leaked. I contacted the company, they sent a new one and it works as good as the first. I highly recommend the iron.

I've experienced no leaking. This is the best iron I've ever owned, and I've had my share at almost 70 years old. You have every reason to be OPTIMISTIC about this iron. :-) Karen

We use distilled water. I'm not sure you have to, but it seems as though it's always better for the iron. We get plenty of steam and use rather a small amount of water, now that I think of it. We're very happy with the iron.

So far ours is not leaking. That said it was only installed 2 months ago. Thanks for the heads up about this potential issue. I'll keep an eye on it and update my review if it becomes a problem.

Been a while...not sure what plastic attachment came in box. But maybe it has something to do with the horrible leakage issues associated with using this iron!!!!

You have a defective sprayer....I've bought three of these and never had a problem leaking....e-mail them..this is way too expensive to be loosing so much product

Base on my experience with my Rowenta DG8430, it lasted about 8 years before I had a leaking problem with it. It still works and irons very well; however, the water leaks out of it and I need to take it to the repair shop to have it repaired. The repair shop is about 40 miles from me; so to take it to the shop and then go back and pick it up, well that is my dilemma. The iron still works well.

I have the same problem. The iron shuts off every ten minutes and then stops heating. Then, water starts leaking from the steam holes . I unplugged and replugged the iron cord so the heating cycle would start again. This is very excruciating. I bought a cheaper iron that does not have an auto shut off feature,

I wonder if you maybe have a lot of minerals in your water and if they're possibly collecting and interfering with water flow... Having a plumber check it out would probably cost nearly as much as a new one so I don't know if that would be an effective way to proceed or not. If it's something focused on the faucet, maybe you can replace just that piece instead of the entire heater unit. I would start as L. Willman suggested and contact Waste King to ask them for assistance.

Probably contact the manufacturer. I've had mine for years and haven't had that problem, but if I did, that is what I would do.

That's a good question, I've been looking for the valve and there are no sights that offer spare parts. I feel jipped as I bought the pot in January and used it for 4 months and the valve no longer works. I went to the forever site and left a comment, but of course no on got back to me..

I have had mine for almost 6 months without a drop of leaking. Perhaps try reassembling it.

Tap water should actually be used instead of distilled water, its just better for the iron overall. One way to prevent dripping is to make sure you dont fill above the max line. If problems continue, please contact Sunbeam direct for more troubleshooting and assistance.

I bought the second iron after the first one stopped working. It only lasted about 6 mos. I tried to contact Contintental but I never received and answer. I like the iron but they just dont last very long.

Hi Linda D. Actually, I never figured out how to open the cover. My husband and a friend also tried to figure it out with no luck. I have been ironing with many different irons since I started high school in 1963 and I have never had a problem filling an iron with water. This is another reason I returned the iron before using.Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I'm sure Black and Decker has an 800 number; I would call them, give them the model number, and then ask for pointers on how to open the water cover so you can fill the iron. Good luck

I'm with Dan Frolich. Both Amazon and eBay have various tips for sale. Use the part number from the iron to help match up the appropriate tips.
