Pressing is one of my quilting challenges. I'd like to get a new iron - maybe a small, craft-size one. Can anyone recommend a good quality iron that won't cost me a fortune?

I have had a Black & Decker Digital Advantage for several years. It's a good steam and a dry iron, but it's a regular size.

anything that is A-heavy, B- does not steam, C-does not auto cut off! I love the older black and decker ones...

You don't have to spend a fortune for a good iron.
