I have a cord minder for my corded sewing machine. It keeps it up out of the way and I'm rarely dragging it across things. They use to be very common when people ironed a lot more. Both of the two I have are vintage.
I use my cordless iron when I'm paper piecing. I love having it right next to my sewing machine and love that it has a point on both ends. The only thing I don't like is that it shuts off rather fast, so I keep an eye on it and giggle it occasionally to keep it hot when I need it. Mine does not have the ceramic plate, so no comment on that part.
