7.6/10 provisional Provisional

Oliso's iTouch system lifts and lowers the iron at a touch, so you can leave it flat. It has a Diamond Ceramic Flow soleplate, a 2in detailer tip and extended auto shut-off. Researched from retailer and maker listings; we have not tested it, and the score is provisional.

Pick it if

you press constantly while sewing and want to stop standing the iron up.

Skip it if

you want a budget iron.
