I bought one of the cordless Panasonic irons when they first came out came out, probably 2012 or somewhere around there. I love it, it gets hot and has been a very reliable, but I couldn’t understand why I needed to clean it almost every day. This is why, I’m glad I had purchased a spare one that it has auto shut off this model has the removeable tank and I have not used steam in over 3 years. I will be keeping my eye on the new one!
