Sunbeam Classic Iron (3965) Review: Cheap But Workable

Not everyone sees an iron as a priority. Neither does everyone can afford a $100 steam iron. Some buy iron models at the top of the range just to have it unusable after a short period of time and would rather settle for a cheaper iron that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. If you are in any of these situations, then let's take a look at a cheap steam iron which happens to be the Sunbeam Iron Classic Model.

Pros

The Sunbeam 3965 Classic Iron comes in the $20 range and for this price, it is a nice surprise to have quite a few features that include shot of steam, spray mist and motion sensor shut-off. Once you have gotten used to a shot of steam feature to get rid of wrinkles, you can't really go back and live without it while ironing. So, having this feature packed into this $20 Sunbeam iron is indeed a good bargain.

In terms of performance, just don't set your expectations too high and you should be happy with this iron - for the price, it might just be the best iron for you. In other words, you need a few more strokes to get rid of wrinkles and creases, especially the stubborn ones. It is also not a super glide iron that works effortlessly but it is slick enough that it doesn't stick to whatever you are ironing. In that sense, it is a cheap iron that works and gets the job done, if you are not particularly fussy.

Cons

The steam function can certainly be improved. It is not highly efficient because you need to have it on at least the second highest setting before you can get some steam going. There may be a slight defect in the iron that I was using, but on the practical side, the highest and second highest setting are probably where the hotness is just sufficient to get a good press when using this iron, which coincides with having the steam feature functioning.

Price

The retail price of the Sunbeam 3965 Classic Iron is around $20 to $30 from most stores - most probable one of the lowest priced steam irons. It is most suitable for those who iron a few shirts each week and it is not one of those steam irons that will make the chore more pleasurable. As such, $20 to $23 would be a good price to pay for this model if you feel it is the best iron for your budget. You could of course also buy iron models that do the job better and easier, but these will cost you a lot more. At this price range, it is fairly cheap, looks nice and does a decent job plus, you are getting one of the more popular brands for an iron.
