The Clover mini iron was a purchase I thought was useless until I found out the iron has to be turned on and brought to high heat several times before it will reach max temp. After preheating the iron six or more times it gets very hot every time now and works great Same goes for some flat and curling irons for hair. Electricity acts the way it wants to. :lol:[/quote]
I purchased this iron to take when we went camping. Out in the woods, far away from any hospital or anything cept for a country store...I found out the hard way that this little iron gets "extremely hot!" I wasn't looking and grabbed it around the metal part just below the iron and above the plastic and burned my hand so badly it blistered immediately and I had nothing to put on it except for a fan to blow on it! That was one of the worst weekends I had before or since! I tried to sell it at my yard sale for $5.00, and no one would even buy it! I still have it, so if anyone wants it, pay shipping and it's yours!
I really hate that iron! (and I try not to hate anything!)
