Tefal Iron - UltraGlide 1749 Review

I've had great results with this iron under demanding circumstances - ironing concert uniforms that had to be perfectly crisp.  The non-stick sole is perfect when dealing with heavy starch which can cause a mess on traditional sole plates. 

It's one negative is the thin plastic case.  With a dog and cat that find a way to knock things over, it wasn't long before the bottom of the plastic shell had a nasty chip that grew to a large hole by the time I replaced it (with a new Tefal).  I would also like more concrete setting markings.  They should know the optimum settings for each fabric type - the way it's set up you can't tell which notch is the right spot until you've used it quite a while.
