Do you have any suggestions for other repairers of this (or similar) product?
Be very very careful, the iron turns on when moved, so having removed from charging stand cold then became hot while being disassembled. Followed user manual instructions requiring it to be left for 8 minutes in cradle with no power to switch off fully.
