Where To Get A Steam Iron Fixed

[HughJass]

bought an expensive Tefal steam iron less than a year ago but the sole plate has become detatched

the iron works perfectly otherwise but the guarantee receipt is long lost

it looks like the plate was originally held on with some high temp epoxy resin glue

can it be fixed and where can I go to have it repaired

Simple answer...NO.

Once the bottom plate separates you can not re-attach it without sending it back to the factory and have them do it. Did you happen to Send in the registration card? You might send it back for repair anyway and see what they say. Either they will say they can fix it and it is covered under warranty or they will say how much it will cost to fix. Add the price of shipping it still might be cheaper that way than to buy a new one. Good Luck
