Hi Sue! I love your "Does This Notion Really Work?". Your opinions and reviews are honest and unbiased. I can tell you that I have purchased (or not) based on your reviews. This Oliso iron is awesome! My previous irons (Rowenta) are used as something other than what they where meant for. They make great door stoppers in disguise! LOL!
Hello. How do you rate the steam function? Do you feel there is enough steam coming out or do you need to press the steam function to get enough? Thanks for the review.
I LOVED my pink Oliso Pro iron...until it quit working after 4 months. Luckily, I purchased directly from the company. They are sending a replacement...after the COVID delay is over, hopefully yet this month.
love this iron I have both standard sizie and mini one mini works little bit different than bigger iron I used spring water bottle water for iron I have well water for tap water which not good for any of my iron
I just bought the this oink one. Do you empty your water after each use? I've had the very first yellow one that came out. it just went out on me. I was just wondering. Thank you.
yes - Here is exactly what is on their site: "If your water is over 12 grams of hardness, we recommend using either inexpensive bottled spring water or mixing half tap water with half distilled water. Never use 100% distilled water as this can cause the iron to spit and leak." - oliso.com/pages/downloads-manuals
You sure can and can an eye out for holiday specials, you never know. Plus we do giveaways (not right now due to COVID) but keep watching, maybe you will win one, one day :)

The iron produces enough steam in my opinion. I don't find that I am hitting the button to get more, it feeds out evenly.

I'm so sorry you had an issue, but that is what happened to my old one and it was too replaced. Can't wait for you to get your new one!
Hmmmm. I have a beautiful Rowenta but it doesn't have all these features. May have to add Oliso to my sewing room.
If you have an iron that works I say keep it until it dies ;) But this lovely thing is a beauty
Is this a newer version of this iron...neat features. Great job, Sue.
YES, I had an old one from about 8 years ago
The Oliso is a pretty cool iron. I wish it came in blue. 😊 Thanks for the review Sue!
Oh yes, or an aqua...I'd be all over that.
@@SookieSews Missouri Star have an aqua coloured model.
@@RonsonDalby Not anymore unfortunately. And they've stated on their site that they are gone forever.
Follow the link in the description to find the aqua mini but yeah they don’t have the full size aqua right now.
@@SookieSews the mini doesn't have the pop up feature

@milissas.8364 I can’t say that I do even though we’re supposed to.
@@SookieSews I know! Me either. I use mine mainly for quilting.
Can you use tap water?

I never have any luck getting one 😕 they are always sold out.
So sorry - thanks to COVID they are low in supply. try here: amzn.to/2VXDcVz
Would be nice if it was digital ... that would make it top of the range
Good review very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Do you have to use distilled water?
No. Don’t use distilled water. Use bottled spring water.
regular tap water
I would love to have one but unfortunately am on a fixed income. Oh well, I can dream.

@@SookieSews I'll be waiting.
