Dritz Petite Press Mini Portable Steam Iron, White

I love that this item was far less expensive on Amazon than in stores (like $20 difference). Well made and doesn't really get too hot, but it's lightweight and perfect for smaller pattern pieces. I haven't let it run to test the auto shut off, but I did notice that the light will turn on if it's plugged in, though this does not mean that it is turned on. So make sure to turn it on.

I have one of the little metal irons and have rarely used it because I'm afraid of burning myself as I tend to get up close and personal with my applique and sewing projects. I saw this iron in a video by Simple Bird Studios where she had her fingers right up against the top of the iron, exactly where I kept wanting to put mine. I immediately found it for less on Amazon. I've only done a couple of projects with this little iron but I love it. The temperatures work for the kind of sewing and applique I do. The little built in metal stand doesn't work so well but I copied from Simple Bird by putting it in a flan ramekin (a roughly 3 to 4 inch across dish with straight sides approx 1 in high) so the iron head hangs out and the rest hangs across the top of the dish with the stand in the closed position and it works perfectly. A friend repurposed an old ashtray. There are four heat settings and I use #3 for my cottons and have no problem getting the seam to set. For applique I "paint" on some starch with a small brush and then iron the seam - works perfectly. Thank you for a really nifty little gadget that works perfectly for me.

I bought this because I haven't used my real iron in years (maybe decades?), and when I went to use it to iron on a patch, I found that my husband had used it for one of his projects, leaving some sort of sticky black goop all over it. I'm not cleaning that. So instead, I bought this. It's perfect for tiny projects, it is small so it stores easily, it gets plenty hot, it's light, and it has its own built-in stand. It's very easy to maneuver and control. It'd be perfect for any sort of spot-ironing you have to do, like cuffs and seams and crafts. I was surprised at the quality of it.

Hot enough to press cotton fabric seems. Not hot enough for thick fabric or more layers of fabric than the standard two layers. The cord is nice and long which is surprising nowadays. My only downside would be it is almost too light since the cord is so long it outweighs the unit so it feels a bit awkward. Overall it does what I bought it for.

Totally good product. Com isn’t. Not a lot of heat to bu n your fingers. Light weight and you can have it at your craft table. I use an ironing wool mat and it’s just right. No leaking lightweight

Perfect for my EPP bag. I really like that it can literally fit in my bag so it has everything I need for every stage of the process. The swivel head does take some getting used to, and I do appreciate that it can swival.

Great little iron that I use for encaustic collage on large areas, such as applying fabric or printed papers to a panel for backgrounds. I love it's ergonomic possibilities as it has four levels of adjustment. Its also fantastic for encaustic safely with four heating levels-I use level 2 for encaustic. Also, great for safety is that it has it's own attached stand, so you just pick it up and put it back down with ease. It's a must have for encaustic collage enthusiasts.

Does not get every hot.

Muy útil para la costura

Esta mini plancha es una gozada, además tiene cuatro niveles de temperatura y plancha genial, pues tiene una potencia muy buena para las labores de patchwork, quilting, ect. Aunque tiene el voltaje de America y he tenido que comprar un transformador de voltaje de 220 V. a 110 V., consume muy poco, en resumen genial.

Great little iron it’s adjustable so very easy to use

I chose between this and the Clover brand tiny iron; this one has a MUCH better design, you don’t risk burning yourself. The long handle makes this easy to use on tricky tiny fabric items. Proper well made smooth heat plate, has four temperature settings, which is great. Heats up enough to iron Cotten and linen etc, I use a spray bottle to help with the pressing, as there is no steam function. Otherwise it’s a real tiny iron, works just like a large one.

Es muy práctica para mis pequeñas manualidades, fácil de usar y para mí muy novedosa pues no deja de sorprenderme por su tamaño y eficacia. La recomiendo ampliamente
