I put my Clover iron in a coffee mug too. It gets really hot, and I like to use it when I'm freezer-paper piecing.
It's also handy to use when I need to iron my binding but don't want to iron the quilt. I don't like to flatten my quilting, and sometimes there is blue marker that would heat set if ironed.
I keep it on my ironing board with my big iron. I only turn it on if I intend to use it, and it heats up quickly.
