I have one and like it for applique and paper piecing. I set it up right by my sewing machine so I don't have to get up. The plastic holder was frustrating, so I got a wooden block with a groove in it. That works great!
I also have the Rowenta travel iron and I love that!

OOPS
Let's try this again.
I don't know about your clove iron.
I saw this young girl on a YouTube doing a tutorial and she was using this sweet little iron. Someone asked her about it and she said where to buy it. Steamfast is the brand.

I have one, but practically never use it. I like a nice crisp press and it just isn't large enough or hot enough for me. I'm sure for very small areas it would be great.

The holder that these come with does not work well and mine has fallen off several times and burned the pad I had it on. I do think I saw a more sturdy holder on the new ones in the store. I bought it for applique work but have found I prefer my regular iron (even for small pieces). I hold my piece steady with a stilleto and it works fine.
