I haven't tried one - can't see what is worth $200. I think I would keep putting it on it's heel anyway, and would be afraid that I would forget to put another one up. Anyway, there was a great blog here about irons not too long ago and in the end the overall census was to buy the cheap (Black and Decker). I have a Rowenta and after a short period of time it started spitting and that was a major complaint in the blog of most expensive irons.
