The Steam Iron of a Crocheter’s Dreams!

I’ve been looking and researching irons for a while now. As a crocheter it’s important to me that it have several features – steam burst, and steam in both horizontal and vertical positions. And I was hoping for a retractable cord and auto shut-off safety features.

Finally, I found the iron of my dreams! The Panasonic NI-E650TR Steam/Dry Iron with U-Shape Titanium Coated Soleplate – it’s got everything I’ve been looking for AND anti-calcium features, at a great price (and it has tons of fantastic reviews)!
