I use my Black and Decker Classic, non auto shut off, it is 1100 watts. It gets hot enough for me. It's stamped on the bottom of the heel rest. It's not just for irons also electric mixers. Ever wonder why some counter top mixers are cheaper but look the same? It's the wattage. Same with the hand held mixers. Wattage does make a big difference in performance. I use the cheap $6-$9 irons for fusing. They get hot enough to fuse but not to hot to burn the adhesive. When I find a new one at Walmart for $6 I buy several, makes a nice but inexpensive door prize for guild meetings.
