I made up my mind 3 years ago that I will not buy the "Expensive" Irons, I've heard so many people complain about the cost then the die. So I buy the cheapest Iron I can find at walmart or target and now they last forever, they are not heavy. So I spend 9 to 10 dollars and it works 10 months a dollar a month! I hope this encourages you to not spend a ton on something that will only let you down, after all you have material to buy!!!
