I know your review was awhile ago. I think I want to venture into the Cordless realm... getting a bit frustrated with my iron cord in the new setup I made for my ironing board :) THanks in advance.Christine Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00864768182290065922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-69479049935500214262011-12-19T09:09:40.365-06:002011-12-19T09:09:40.365-06:00I've had my Maytag cordless iron for about 7 y...I've had my Maytag cordless iron for about 7 years and I love it. But they quit making them when Maytag was bought out by Frigidare. I bought an iron caddy that screws onto the end of my board, my iron stay there...perfectly :o) I believe it was $6. I thought about buying the Panasonic but I don't like the shape of the sole at all. Not practical for me. Maybe they'll come out with one with a flat back. Thank you for sharing this iron as I'm going to need another cordless when mine peters out.

I paid $25 for my iron 8 years ago and it still works perfectly. I'll stick with my "old" corded version lol.

The automated phone system did not understand the word "iron" so it took a while to get transferred to a person. No order had been placed so we did the info thing and at the end she said your coupon came up as invalid! Proceeding with the order anyway because I need an iron and surprise! The total was the same as the online total with the coupon applied.Dixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00019618946884383144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-29249979864511719592011-12-13T07:14:59.026-06:002011-12-13T07:14:59.026-06:00Thanks for such an honest review.

One was a fantastic Rowenta that I still have as a backup that's almost 20 years old. They don't make them like that anymore. I know that because it's follow-on Rowenta only lasted 2 years. Grrr. I just got an Olisio a few months ago and I love it. Like your new iron, it took some getting used to (you don't stand them up like normal). I'm just hoping it will last -- I wonder how long before the little hydraulic feet wear out. Your Panasonic iron reminds me of a modern version of the old-timey irons that they used to put on the stove top to heat up.
