Recently our iron broke - a big piece of the handle cracked and fell off. I mentioned to my husband that we needed a new one. His response: "Why? You never use it anyway." I made like I was mortally offended, but the truth is, that was two months ago, and I haven't replaced the iron yet. Haven't missed it.
I have been without an iron for about 4 years now.
If something really needs to be pressed, that's what the dry cleaner is for.
Fortunately, except for the few things I have that are dry-clean-only anyway, very few things need to be pressed.
