If I hadn't seen that I would have thought, as some posters mentioned, that something was wrong with it and probably let it sit in a drawer with the intention of returning it- but not really getting around to it. So that would have been $30 down the drain. I can't count the things I've learned here that have saved me money. Anyone else have this experience? Thought it might be helpful to newer members of the board to benefit from things we've learned from each other. Thanks for helping me save money!
I wonder if the heat and cool trick would make the small iron I bought work? I tried it once, and it never got warm enough to dent the cotton fabric much less press it. I am off to try it. Wish me luck. You may have just saved me about $15. Thank you.
