I like mine, it's useful for small pieces and small seams

I have one I ordered from Hobby Lobby online. It gets very hot. I use it all the time. When I'm not using it for quilting, I use it to iron and straighten out my thread for crosstitch. I tried a flat iron my daughter was getting rid of for the thread and it works well also. Easier to travel with.

I bought one, used it once and then put it away NEVER to be seen again. :thumbdown:

I have one but seem to always go back to my regular iron. I wouldn't waste the money on one.

The only thing I've found it useful for was hot set crystals. Otherwise, it's been useless. Sits in my drawer.

I have one and I never use it. I forget I have it when I'm piecing. I tried it out when I first got it and it seems like it takes a long time to get hot. I found it awkward to use. So I put it away after that first test and have never used it since. Spend your gift certificate on something you will actually use IMHO. If you do get one, don't pay full price for it. Joanns has them on sale A LOT.

I have had one for sometime. I don't like it as it isn't very hot. I use the sealing iron that really gets hot.

I love mine for pressing seams as I piece. Works great for that. When I sew blocks together I get out the big steam iron.

I found that to be the case here also...great for bias tape

Good idea. I hadn't thought about using mine for this. As many of those I use, you'd think I'd have thought of that already. Thanks!
