This is by far the best iron I've ever owned. It has way more steam holes on the bottom than Ive ever seen, yet alone used. When first trying the iron, I was amazed at its ease of use. Also the multiple coices there are for different types of fabrics. Then to top it all off, you can hang up what ever you like and steam from the upright position. It does great when using it to steam hanging items as well. By far the best iron Ive used. Im planning on giving some as Christmas presents. Lots of people I know dont bother to try and iron their own clothes anymore, but Im sure they will after trying this iron!
