Ha! I have Irons as in plural. For the final press, I use my Rowenta. It has a stainless steel plate, is heavier than my others and also gets hotter. During construction I will use a combo of finger pressing, my small craft iron, and a cheap light weight Black and Decker. I like the craft iron which only has about 1 and 1/2 inch sole but has an attached stand that I can use. So I set a wool pressing pad to the left side of my machine and give those short little seams a press as I piece. When the block is done, I give it a final press on the ironing board with my Rowenta. The Black and Decker I will use when I am tired or my arm is sore as it is lighter to handle.
