I really like my Oliso, too. It's not as good as the Laura Star Steam Generator, but it's a small fraction of the cost and good value IMO. I almost died when I looked to see how much a new Laura Star was when my last one died.

Its probably the same as the one I'm still using. They last forever. I had my previous one for 25 years.

I only iron what I need for a project.
Wash and starch and dry fabric
fold it selvage edges together and straightened
when a quilt calls for 3/4yd I pull it from my stash and cut that amount off my yardage
I only press that amount. If it is a little wrinkled a spritz of water helps.
I don't find very many wrinkle problems doing it this way. I don't like pressing fabric and storing it, pulling it out to use and pressing it again, that would be torture for me.
