This small iron worked surprisingly good. The best thing about is is that it was hot and ready to iron in less than a minute. Turning the handle made it easy to use. There is only one heat setting so I’m guessing the steam function will be for the more delicate fabrics. I did try to use the steam function while ironing a shirt but I’m used to my iron where you just push a button for bursts of steam here and there. This one you have to switch it from iron to steam every time you want steam. Also you cannot just stand it up while moving your clothes. You have to set it in the tray it comes with. Those two things are the only thing I didn’t like but I’m sure will just take time to get used to. Other than that it worked great. I didn’t have anything delicate to steam so I just tried a dress shirt and it just did ok. I would think it will work great steaming a thinner fabric.
