Cordless Irons

Panasonic
I love my Panasonic and it's the only one I use. I have never removed the water tank, I didn't know it was removable and that I was supposed to! I might have to look into that.
Panasonic NI-L70SR Cordless Iron, Curved Stainless Steel Soleplate, White/Clear Green is the one I have.

I have an old Oreck and I wouldn't recommend buy another. I have one of the older models and you have to remember to turn off the steam every time you place it back on the cradle. This is a pain to remember and if you don't remember you take the chance of burning out the cradle. If you are doing a lot of ironing you have to wait for the iron to reheat every time. It is just a matter of a couple of seconds or so, but when you are ironing a big piece of fabric you want to be able to keep going and not have to wait for the little mini breaks the iron seems to need to keep going.
I also had a cord minder once and I seemed to be too ditzy to use it right. I was always tangled up some how and I could never figure out why that was. So until my Oreck stops working, I'll just use that one.

I've had my Panasonic for almost a year. It's a keeper. I have never felt like putting it back in the base was a problem. Some one told me to look for the model with a flat back (not the 360) since it allows you to set it down for a second without putting it back in the base. I purchased it on Amazon for $60. I see they are going for more now - not sure why.
I also put a wooden TV tray at the end of my ironing board to keep the base on while I'm ironing.
Here's a picture of it.

I have a cordless Panasonic L70SR. This is the second one I've owned. Both of mine leaked after at least a year of use, one at the base and one at the top of the iron. I've had the second one since January 2016, I purchased a warranty with it, and I'm going to send it in for reimbursement. I love the cordless aspect, but I'm hesitant to buy a third one. I see so many great reviews on them, and I agree with them, but for some reason mine keep leaking.

I had a cordless Panasonic and after 6 weeks it stopped heating. I sent it to the repair address listed and 4 weeks later they sent me.....another Panasonic iron with a long cord...guess they cannot repair? I gave up after that.

I absolutely LOVE the Panasonic cordless iron!!!
I can press large quilt tops without having the blasted cord get tangled up in the fabric.
It stays hot and presses flat.
The water reservoir is removable making filling easy.
Comes with its own carrying case to bring to sew groups or retreats.
It's lightweight for those of us who have issues with arthritis or any other discomfort.
It comes in cool colors.
