Don't overlook the 'throwaway society' you will be joining if the latter course is taken. Distilled or de-ionised water causes no problem, having an old iron to dispose of does, as I found out when mine packed in last time. Nobody wants them, not even the charities who repair 'broken' electrical items and donate them to those who need them – they are not easy to repair.
