The Hamilton Beach Durathon Nonstick Iron is a very good quality iron with steam features and a spray nozzle feature for extra tough creases. The steam feature can also be used vertically which I absolutely love for quick de-wrinkling of hanging garments. The iron also self cleans the Durathon nonstick plate with a press of a button and has a handy swiveling cord that keeps out of your way when your pressing in whatever position. I find this iron easy to use on all its functions and it heats up VERY quickly so I can set my seams on the dry side and then steam my quilt squares flat without having to wait in between. The iron is well balanced and not overly heavy so I'm finding it very convenient to press even deep creases without trouble at all. I am very pleased overall with the Durathon Iron and highly recommend it.
