Steam Iron with Touch-Activated Lift and Diamond Ceramic Soleplate for Sewing and Garment Pressing
This steam iron makes sewing and garment pressing easier with a handle that lowers the soleplate when touched and raises it when released. The Oliso iron combines this touch-activated lift with a diamond ceramic-flow soleplate that glides across fabric and is easy to clean after working with fusibles.
The two-inch detailer tip reaches seams, bias tape and tight corners, helping you press around pockets, cuffs and collars. Horizontal and vertical steam bursts give you two ways to tackle wrinkles, while the 12-foot pivoting cord allows room to move around your pressing area.
