I really like that iron for pressing back seams while I'm paper piecing. The only thing I don't like about it is that the cord is modular, and it comes out of the plug on the side of the iron far too easily. I need to remember to glue that in before I do any more paper piecing - it's a pain in the neck.
Wal-Mart has something like that for like $10. I think they're specifically targeted towards iron on patches. I thought about getting it, but kind of debate the quality and if even that would still be too big when working with the extremely thin bias tapes.
