Following are some things to consider as you're looking at steam irons:

• Heat Settings: If you're planning on using many different kinds of fabric, it's essential to be able to set your quilting iron to provide the correct measure of heat for each type of material. Without individual settings, you risk scorching or otherwise damaging delicate fabrics.
• Displays: It's helpful to know when your iron has reached the desired temperature, which heat setting you're on and if you have sufficient water stored to complete your ironing project.
• Steam Holes: A large number of steam holes (400+) ensures even steam distribution and helps prevent the quilting iron from sticking to your material.
• Auto Shut-Off: There's no need to worry whether you turned off the iron or not. An auto shut-off engages when the iron hasn't been used for a prescribed period of time.
• Anti-Drip Feature: This prevents water droplets from getting on your fabric when you move the iron.
• Cord: Make sure the length of the cord is sufficient for your workspace. Some pressing irons come with retractable cords, which can be helpful in keeping your area neat and tidy. You also have the option of a cordless iron, which comes with a charger. Just make sure your iron is fully charged, so it's ready when you are.
