Update: Jan 2010 on T-Fal Steam Irons:

This particular model is no longer available, but T-Fal makes other models worth considering. Most of their irons have their popular Ultraglide nonstick sole plate and 1400W of power, which helps to make ironing a quick task. They are easy to use and have reasonable prices.
