Try the Press 'n Sew by rowenta - lightweight enough for my rotor cuff issue it has a black coated bottom. I have had it for years, don't know if they still make it. The trick is to unplug it after each use, even it you are doing sew then iron. I use a surge protector by my foot, so I just click on the little red light and shut it off. It doesn't have auto off, so I just bought a black & decker that does and the bottom drags on the fabric and makes those crunchy wrinkles on the small pieces. It is okay on the larger ones, but life is too short for me to deal with it. It is in the donation pile for the women's shelter (unknown locations). I make scrap quilts and tie them in all sizes and donate for them too.
