Finally! An iron that shows limescale and needs cleaning. Thank you for this!

Thanks once again for this presentation. I am writing from Kenya, just to thank you. My steam I clogged a month ago and I had no slight idea of what to do; when I followed your instructions, the iron never responded immediately, but today, I am glad to report yo you that it has come back to life and it is functioning in its original state. Keep up this good job, you never know how many people you are going to assist. Thanks once again.

Many Thanks Sir, My Iron is now beautiful again. I had bought a new iron but sent it back as my 20 year old appliance was obviously so much better and more sturdy. It makes me so happy to make my old iron new and continue using an appliance I know well and trust. Again, Thank you.

I have the same model as yours. Black & Decker D2030. And the manual particularly warns against using vinegar. Instead you are supposed to hold the dial in "Clean" position (yes, that's an option on the dial) and hold hot iron (unplugged) over a sink and repeatedly press the steam button until all water comes out.

Crumpled Aluminum foil works well for the outer holes too. Thanks for the vinegar tip. My tap water is very hard, so will try distilled.

Nicely instructed, clear and to the point. Thanks!

Thank you sir, very straight-forward explanation, saved my iron machine and me some money :-)

Wished I had seen this before now. Good video. Unfortunately I waited too long to try this, so I had to take my iron apart to get all of the hard water deposits out. Now that I know about this, I’ll use this method periodically. Thanks!

Hello i completely watch your video. I try vinegar too and its really works. Thanks for sharing your tips and idea. I support your channel too. God bless you always.

It's not about how high the temperature goes or how fast it goes up, like someone posted, it's about the water quality. If u have water that is not so pure, like full of chalk u will have that problem anyway. Vinegar is a good solution against chalk, luckily where I live the water is very soft and I don't have to use any anti-chalk solutions. I guess u don't even have to dilute the vinegar, it will be more effective. But in order to prevent this, use distilled water and u don't have to bother anymore.

Use filtered , or even better, distilled water and you won't have this problem.

I did it and worked very well. Thanks for saving my iron

Very nicely explained. Step by step!!

Okay but your final cleaned surface still looks dirty. But still then nice video. Going to try it.

I am a rank amateur steam iron user, my wife fractured her right arm and for the first time in my life I am doing the family's ironing and cooking etc. I took one look at our steam iron which calcified in the holes and on the soleplate and it seemed to me that the manufacture's don't even suggest using distilled water? But, I have an even better and cheaper solution, we have a dehumidifier in one of our upstairs north facing rooms which produces condensed water which is the same as distilled water and after several sessions of ironing the iron is like new, no scale or calcification on the soleplate.

Watched a decol video yet so much like still soon as use the crap gets on clothes. I had iron 7 years never cleaned more 7 years going to try yout method. Got worse since I used decol. I did use it on towel after I decalkedit but gonna do what u do

Nicely expained, i will try.

It works perfectly, thank you👌

Great job. Thanks!!!!

Never iron on the carpet, I once knocked the iron and the carpet was burned. Cost me a lot of money out of my rental bond

it's not dirt hun it's from not using distilled water you shouldn't use tap water on an iron

It really works 👍

If I use salt to clean it spoils the iron box?

.Prevention is better than cure. I have found that most people iron at too high a temperature . The steam setting on my iron has high, medium , low. Set the steam to low. I have found this setting works perfectly and I never have to clean my iron. The rule is start off at a low temperature and increase the temperature gradually. Write the settings down or keep them in a mental sock. Give it a go you have nothing to lose and hopefully everything to gain.

what band is your iron?

Cashew

It works perfectly, thank you👌
