Iron...I bought a small travel iron, palm size. Just love it. Rarely, and I mean rarely, do I use the other iron. Found mine at Walmart for under 15.00. Small, compact, and really gets hot. Only down size...no auto shut off.
After reading other posts, just a different perspective. Prioritize what you bring. I wouldn't bring anything I knew I could buy locally. Remember, storage area for your sewing machine can hold a lot of sewing notions.
