A good iron is an essential household appliance that you'll be glad to have when the need arises. It is known by many names like iron, clothing iron or flatiron that removes creases by pressing clothes. The name originated from the metal of which the device is mostly made. The electric iron was invented by a New York inventor, Henry W. Seeley, in 1882 and patented his invention as 'electric flatiron' on 6 June 1882. Seeleys invented model used to take long hours to warm up and was very heavy that weighted almost 15 pounds. The Chinese in the first century BC used to use heavy metal pans filled with hot water for smoothing fabrics.

The price of an iron depends on its features and wattage. Some of the features are must haves and essentials while others are nice to have if you want to pay for the convenience. Higher wattage means more hotness and quicker ironing.
