I bought one and never used it. I have the travel Rowenta and the little blue and white long handled one from JoAnns. I also use a seam roller (wooden) if I am in a hurry.

I use mine for ironing over the edges onto the shiny side of freezer paper for hand applique. Just slit the fabric from the back & remove the paper. Slit doesn't show , batting fills it in or can be stuffed for more dimension. Happy quilting!!

I have one I think it is great for pressing seams I purchased it with a special tip for seams.

Ditto, I had to set up a separate melt-proof container for it and keep a tiny spray bottle handy, but I did find it very good for small curves in applique and centres of 8 point stars, tho I bet others have better methods.... I really don't use it very often

I use mine for paper piecing and cutting templates for quilting. I use plastic template material so makes for easy marking of fabric. Mine has several tips that are used for different things. It does get very hot so I use a heavy jar or mug to hold it when not in use. That way it does not tip over and burn me or the pressing surface. It is very convenient when taking classes for pressing seams. I usually take a small spray bottle for water if I think the seams need steam to press flat.

I have with multiple attachment and have used them all. I applique and it works great to iron the turn. I does get very hot so be careful.

We have bought 2 varieties and given them to other sewers. Pros are the light reminding you its on, an easy click turn on off switch, a foldable stand etc. Cons are if you're notpaying attention it is easy to burn the cord. Over all I like it beter then the other brand(don't remeber the name. Would like to see some sort of guard against the hot wand end. Only started to do it once but reached for the wrong end- sort of like a curling iron. It also has a temp control to handle more delicate fabrics

I replaced the small iron surface with a larger attachmnet and use it for applique (freezer paper and starch) and it works well. I do not use it for pressing seams while I am piecing quilts.

I have the same problem - but thought it would be great to get into tight corners; but not the case... sorry!
