I have the Steamfast Mini-iron too. So far so good. But I want to find a small Black and Decker - lightweight but gets really hot. It like a 3/4 size - they have them at the time-share we have in Vegas - really want to accidentally pack it in my suitcase to bring it home. (But I would never be able to use it without feeling guilty.). When I iron I keep a USED dryer sheet on my ironing board. I spritz it with water, then run the hot iron over it. It keeps my irons from sticking and I use spray starch a lot. And since I started using the used dryer sheet, there is no build up on any of my irons. I used to use dryer sheets all the time - but now I use wool dryer balls, so I ask my daughters for them. Yes, they think I am nuts but I gave them my dryer sheets that I stopped using.
