I'd get a used Sunbeam flat iron (no steam); they're available for as little as $5.
I'd also suggest getting a Miracle Ironing Board Cover with the money you save on a fancy iron, so that you never have need of a super hot iron. Your iron will last longer, you will use less electricity and your fabric will last longer.
