My favorite iron is a Continental Dry Iron. I purchased mine from Amazon ($40), but I have read that it can be purchased at Home Depot for a little less. I use it for all my quilting, but purchased it originally for fusible. Since there are no steam holes, there are no unfused dots. It doesn't have an auto-off option, gets hot fast and stays hot. I don't use steam, just a spray bottle of water or 1/2 & 1/2 water and Best Pressed.
