I really like it very much, but it died a couple weeks ago during a retreat, sob. It is now back at the factory so we shall see what happens. I will keep you posted. Right now I am using an old travel iron in the meantime.
Exactly two weeks after I returned my Panasonic cordless iron, WL600, to the factory, a package arrived the other day with a brand new replacement, WL602, free of charge and no shipping. I did pay to ship the original iron. Otherwise, there was no additional cost. I can't wait to use it.
One feature I did like very much, and I bet others, who have the same type of iron from Panasonic, do too, is that the water receptacle is removable. It makes it easier to add water. I made it a habit to remove it when I am done using the iron for the day. I do not have to drain the iron.
