Just remember any iron that can do steam can become incontinent. Also more expensive is definitely not always better.
Now I have to consider the weight of the iron also. While I love the self lifting iron it is way to heavy for me to comfortably use.
My favorite iron ever was a Black & Decker, from Walmart I think. I do have a cordless Maytag for ironing completer quilt tops without the ironing cord getting in the way.
