Quilters are always searching for something that makes certain tasks quicker and easier. If you are tired of catching the iron’s cord on the corner of your table or tripping over the cord …
Then this is the iron for you!
To get high marks as our favorite steam iron for quilters, this little iron has to be more than simply cord free.
Here at Heirloom Creations we go through irons like water. We have tried cheap ones and expensive ones and nothing seems to last to our liking. The biggest problem is that irons get bumped off the table and fall to the floor or the cord gets snagged on something and the iron again falls to floor. A couple bounces off the concrete from a 4 foot drop does not serve an iron well.
We are always willing to try a new iron. When the new Panasonic 360 Freestyle cordless iron arrived we were curious. Would this iron be kept from being knocked off the table? With the power cord tucked out of the way, this iron has proven first that the floor will not be its demise. The kids in our recent Kids Quilt Camp always went for this iron first because of its size and ease of use. Everyone here is in LOVE with this new iron.
The iron will stay hot for up to 30 seconds of ironing and only takes 8 seconds to re-heat once returned to the base. In my world, that’s fast!
It has great steaming option and an extra spray of water out of the front to help with those extra wrinkly areas. And the removable water tank makes refilling a breeze.
No one likes a drippy iron. The Panasonic 360 Freestyle is guaranteed not to dip.
