I have the one pictured and used my coupon to buy it and I find that it is one of my favorite quilt notions I have ever bought. It works perfect on seams, even tough seems just need a little extra time pressing and come out flat. I can't imagine my quilting without it.

I use my clover for seams and applique. I got it with a 50% off coupon at Joann's.

I guess I'm getting the Clover with my next coupon from Joann's. Thanks everyone.

I have a Clover and love it for pressing the seams of doll clothes!

I always use a travel iron for pressing seams etc - more versatile than the mini iron, and a lot cheaper!

i have this one, and i love it..it gets really hot, and i use it like you do, next to my machine.

there is another out there that , that got excellent reviews..

I got the Rowenta travel iron about 1 year ago and agree that it is a great little iron. But one day I pressed too hard on the handle while ironing and the handle collapsed and now the handle will no longer stay up. I took the iron apart to find that the trigger between up & down for the handle was broken and cannot be fixed. Word to the wise on this iron--do not push down hard on the handle.

I bought one for my doll clothes. It doesn't get hot enough to really press the seams. Is works (sort of) on the doll clothes but takes forever to heat and, as I said, doesn't get hot enough. Maybe I bought the wrong brand. Mine was $25.00.

I bought one of those miniature irons and have never used it! I think I bought it mostly for the "cute" factor - it sure looks cute in my sewing room....

Same here...travel Rowenta & 50% off at Joann's. I bought this in 12/2009 and I love, love it for pressing 1/4" seams. It gets hot quick and stays hot. Does not have an auto shut off thus it stayed on for about 24 hours before I remembered it. Still heats up fast and is hot. I won't be forgetting it again.
