I have heard good things about the Panasonic Cordless. That and the Reliable were my two choices. The price of the Reliable one was too good to turn down so I went for it. Oh the newer of the BEAUTURAL iron you can't hold down the selection, you have to push each time. My friend has the older one and she can hold her button down to change the selection. Oh well, I gave it to my daughter she can push the button for a free iron.
