I am looking to purchase a small iron so I don't have to take the big one to classes. I tried the Clover and another one from JoAnn's but the Clover was easy to burn myself and the other didn't get hot enough. Does the SteamFast also work when I need a dry iron?

I don't have a SteamFast ... I use a travel iron to take to classes/retreats. The one I have gets really hot and I can use it with steam or not.

My travel iron goes with me everywhere. Perfect size

I don't know about the SteamFast iron. I use the Rowenta Travel Iron. The steam is amazing, it has a precision point, does dry as well and it has setting like the regular Rowenta. Love the little iron as much as the big one and it does not have automatic shut off. Sometimes you can find it at Joanns or Hancock Fabrics.
Good Luck
