I'm looking for a good mini-iron. Does anyone have this or can recommend one?

I know I'm going off the mini iron, but I am so disappointed in my $200. Oliso Pro Iron......it leaks and spits. I bought it at Joann's and now I can't for the life of me find the receipt. They will take it back and give me half of what I paid. I can't send it to the manufacture people without the receipt. Boy what a lesson to learn. And.....I almost never throw receipts away. Darn. What is the best stem iron you girls and guys use? I just might have to splurge for another one.

I bought a Dritz Petite Press and am very disappointed with it. It says it has 4 heat settings and it does, but it never got hot enough to even press seams. I see some other folks have one and love it so maybe I just got a lemon.

small clover iron
I have a small Clover iron, not nearly as small as the mini one you use for applique but not as big as the Rowenta travel iron. I have tried and tried to find a picture of it with no luck so apparently they don't sell it anymore, maybe ebay, didn't check there. I love it, has a detachable handle and does have steam but you have to add the water thing to the front of it so don't use that as the steam went straight out the front and not down onto your fabric. It does a great job though with it just at dry, I take it with me to our quilt group or retreat. It comes with a handly little zippered vinyl bag. Wish they still made them as many people ask me about it. I'm pretty sure I got it at Jo-Anne's but quite a few years ago.
