    One that I haven't dropped on the floor. I've broken one every time I've moved (and I move a lot)!

    I have had such luck with the cheap ones that I have only had two in the last 15 years and one of them I lost in a move. I have used one at my mom's house...one of the fancy ones that has auto shut off and auto lift. I much prefer the cheapy I'm using. The other ones are heavier and shut off on me all the time. Lol. It's all on person preference. :)

    My favorite iron is our 40 some year old GE non-steam iron. I like to spritz the items I am ironing and never have to worry about drips or spots from a steam iron. I've had Black and Decker, Rowenta, and other new irons and always wind up back with old faithful.

    Tonight I bought a cheap black & Decker with auto shut off the only feature on sale for $17. I have had 3 Rowentas and every one has quit working after a few years.

    I love my Oliso, have had it for 4+ years and have had no issues. Pressing is my least favorite thing to do but with the Oliso, not so bad.
