Cordless Iron questions .......
How long does it stay hot, before needing to go to its charging station?
If it is "drained" how long before it is fully charged?
For example ... when pressing a finished quilt, or the backing ... it could be off the charger for a long time.
Thank you!

Thanks Jennifer23 ... for the explanation as to how it works and your experiences.
The cool down time and re-heat time had always been what I had wondered about.
All good to know .... and hoping this does not jinx things that I need an iron any time soon!

I do appreciate all your informative replies!!!! You are all super wonderful!
I ended up ordering panasonic WL600. It was much less than the other cordless 360 ones! Was tempted to try the cordless one that was not 360 but it still was over $100.00. It looked to be light green with a standard shaped sole plate. Hope I made the right choice!

The owner of Panasonic cordless iron here. I have Panasonic NI-WL602 model I really love. The fact that it’s cordless and lightweight lets you tomaneuver easier. It heats up quickly and keeps the temperature well. Here is the review on it https://pickadvisor.org/best-cordless-iron/

I have the cordless Panasonic, too. Not having a cord is a great feature, but my go to iron is an old T-Fal corded. I've had many irons, gravity feed and many of the other expensive corded irons. I find there's a lot of fiddling with the cordless Panasonic: it turns off, have to adjust to make sure it's hot enough. My sewing machine and design boards are all in reach of my corded iron and I can rely on it's being heated. I also think the Panasonic doesn't get as hot. So, I would base your decision on how important not having a cord is.
