I bought this iron after watching video tutorials to see how it worked because it is true that without clamp it seems quite difficult. iron quickly heats and pretty bow very quickly (no need to keep the wound very long wick). By cons must have the hand because in the beginning it is quite difficult, you have to hold the wick (fortunately there was a glove since otherwise danger of burns). It's easier when someone makes you but I think it's a hand to take and that in time it will come. But I am very happy with my purchase.
