I have one of the June Tailor Cut n Press. It's awesome. I've had it for 15 or 20 years now and it's still good. I use it a lot when I'm doing paper piecing and am too lazy to walk to the ironing board for every press. I just put my old Black & Decker iron and the Cut n Press on the table next to the sewing machine so I can press each time. I don't remember it being that expensive and it's lasted so long, it's been worth every penny.
I also like that it has a grid on the pressing side as well as the cutting side.
