What iron do you have?????
#11
I'm looking into getting a dry iron. I'm tired of trying to clean out all the holes from starch. I don't care about steam. I don't really use it anyway. If I need some water I just use a spray bottle. I want a nice smooth plate with no holes.

I have a Rowenta that I got refurbished, I think on Amazon, so it was cheaper. I have had it for a couple of years now and have had no problems, and it is the best iron I have ever owned. Great steam.

I have a cheap and light one I picked up last year. It was only ten dollars. It does the trick, when it goes I will do the same thing again. The more expensive ones are so heavy and I do not like the heaviness of them. Just my thought.

try goodwill went the other day looking for sheets and found a brand new iron. it had never been used for only 8.00 it has auto shut off and steam and also self cleaning. I tried it and it works great. I use it in my sewing room. I forget to turn my iron off sometimes. My rowenta I have had for over 12 years and it still works great I use it in my living room. where I cut my fabric and have my ironing board. I can remember to unplug that one.
