does anyone have those little mini irons with the attachments? supposed to be for quilters where you can really get into those seams. they are pretty pricey though and then the attachments are bought extra.

I bought one with a coupon at Joann's and it had the attachment with it. I like mine a lot!

I have the Clover mini, without any attachments. I do like it for when I am pieceing blocks that have several seams.

I have the Clover mini iron (without attachments). This is an essential tool for paper piecing.

I have the Clover mini iron with a few attachments. I bought the 'new' design (as the package says) that has an additional safety factor built in to the design.

Well, let me tell you that I obviously am not bright enough to use this mini iron. First time I plugged it in, I thought to myself, "Now DON'T touch it here, or you'll get burned!"

So who knows the end of this story? Yup, I grabbed the mini iron in the ONLY place you're not supposed to grab it, and burned the heck out of my fingers.

I can't tell you if it is good for seams or not, because I unplugged it, put it away, and probably will never plug it in again until I feel like I have developed enough of an IQ to use it without causing great pain to myself.

I have one and use it occasionally. I also made a little ironing board out of a wooden TV tray so they can set right next to me when I'm paper piecing.

I have one but I don't like it. I have an older B&D travel iron and I love it...It gets so hot and I don't have to have a cup or anything to put the iron on or in when I am not using it.

I have a clover mini iron for piecing and an old travel iron I use the rest of the time. Like both,depends on what I am working on and Yes,ask me how I learned to put the mini clover iron into a cup to stand up. pab

I have the Clover and it's okay - a little faster than using a wooden "iron."

I also have a little (TINY!) iron by Sharptek - it's in the iron section at Joann for about $7.00. Very, very cute and much easier to handle than the Clover wand-type iron. I think it's hotter, too, which I like. The heat is not adjustable, but for my purposes, it doesn't matter. I use it while paper piecing.

The only thing I don't like about it is that the cord keeps falling out of the iron. I am going to glue it in with E6000 the next time I use it.
