goldogmomThat is my concern as well and why i haven't committed to the drop. It looks like only the TG1600 had a 30 minute auto shutoff, but it's more pricey
goldogmomMy friend who quilts has this iron and she loves it. She said if you just touch or move the iron it doesn't shut off. I like to chain piece and then iron so I think it will work ok. She also said it heats up very quickly.. I wish it was pink, but if I can't have pink, purple is great!!
Pattypi321My friend says if you touch it it turns on so when you are using it for Quilting it doesn't cool off enough to notice. It heats very quickly. I think it will be nice when I'm chain piecing. I can press when I'm done. It heats up quickly.
LaNieceThanks, LaNiece. I chain piece when I can also. My ironing board is right beside my sewing machine so I can just reach over and touch it...didn't think about it being that sensitive.
