Default Replacing my iron, is Oliso worth the $$$?

I need to replace an iron that has a dying thermostat--barely gets hot enough to melt butter! Working with cottons it's gotta get hot or it just doesn't work. I have seen some Oliso irons that look really impressive and have a lot of features that appeal to the quilter, but they are pretty pricey and I've read a few bad reviews. Does anyone have one of these irons and what do you like/dislike about yours? I went through two Rowentas a few years back and decided they weren't really worth the money, so now I'm a little leery of the high end irons. Should I just keep buying the cheap ones and consider them "disposables"? I wind up replacing one every couple of years.
