I just recently purchased this iron and so far am very impressed with the quick heat-up and ease of use. My last two irons were both Rowenta brand. They came so highly reccommended by clerks in fabric shops and by Martha Stewart, using one regularly on her show during craft segments. Well, my first one died in less than a year after purchase. It wasn't cheap! ($80-90.00 range) I sent it back to the company and asked if they could repair it and let me know what the charge would be since it was out of the warranty period. Two weeks later I got it back, not repaired with a short and somewhat rude note stating that since it was out of it's warranty they would not touch it, completely ignoring my offer to pay for the repair. Later I decided to try Rowenta again with a lower end model, (less expensive) that still delivered on the steam factor. Well that one lasted about 4 years total before it died but, the steam element went caput in only a few months after purchase. While I researched online for a better, more reliable iron, I struggled along with an old Black & Decker "Professional" model hidden away in the back of the linen closet. I was quickly reminded of why it was tucked back there, it weighs a ton and the steam element is terrible and leaked all over the place. When I saw this Oliso model on Amazon, I went to the manufacturer's website to get more info and found a short video on the home page showing all the unique features of this iron. I was hooked and knew I had to try one for myself!The i-touch scorch guards are so cool! It took me all of 5 minutes to get used to the idea of leaving the iron flat rather than standing it on it's heel. It heats up to temperature very quickly too which is great if you are in a rush. The knobs and selectors are very easy to read and understand and the water tank is actually accessible and easy to fill! What a concept!! I do alot of sewing both clothing and household items so this is a much needed and welcome upgrade. I hope over time I will still be able to give this product the 5 star rating, depending on the lifespan of course. So far I am thrilled!...Well at least as thrilled as one could be over an iron!

A steam iron that levitates? And does push-ups? Absolutely! From the company that believes in making the mundane fun--as well as state-of-the-art--comes the Smart Iron steam/dry iron series. Featuring patented iTouch auto-lift technology, every iron is equipped with digital sensors that recognize the touch of your hand and lower the iron to the fabric, then lift it when you let go. That means a couple of things: no more repetitive lifting to an upright position, no more accidental burns, and no more fear of tipping. Starting to see the �smart� part? The iron also has an award-winning automatic shut-off feature that's timed for different events: 30 seconds if knocked over, 3 minutes if left horizontal with iTouch over-ridden, and 8 minutes if left idle in the lifted position.
Additional features include easy-to-use selector controls, deep penetrating heat for one-pass pressing, and vertical, horizontal, and continuous steaming options with an anti-drip system. Ready to tackle even the most challenging jobs, the iron is shaped with a pointed tip for narrow spots, roomy 1-1/2-inch detailers to snuggle up to buttons and pockets, and a rolled edge on the soleplate for smooth sailing across any fabric. This TG-1050 model is equipped with a micro-fine soleplate with mirror glide finish, 1600 watts of power, and an 8-1/2-foot cord with 360 degree pivoting. The large 12.7-ounce side-load tank has a built-in funnel and gladly accepts tap water. One-year warranty.
