It was time for irons come with a wire less ... It is very practical not to have a thread that runs through ever so before when we go back !!! Based anywhere within range can ask to recharge iron, it can also secure with a device provided on the ironing board but then I found that the base takes up space and can no longer board correctly. Personally, I put it on the iron stand beside. He returns very well, is not too heavy, steam is released but we must charge him with a resounding beep quite often what could be the downside.
