    if you don't need to use it heaps, we have three hear that haven't been used in ages - when you come down for the other stuff, you're welcome to take one of them!

    any clothes that need ironing go to mum's - or we start a basket and when it's full, pay to have it done!

    Would it be worth it to get one of those steam numbers? It's upright and you hang the clothes up and do it that way...saw it in the middle of the shopping centre awhile back.

    I can second staying away from the teflon coated ones.

    It has ruined clothes of ours. I bought a kenwood one and all this stuff got caked on the bottom of the iron and I cant for the life of me get it off. I found that the teflon if it got to hot, the iron wouldnt glide over the shirts, it would stick to them grrrrrr!!!
