About Oliso M2 Pro Mini Project Iron with Solemate for Travel, Sewing, Quilting and Crafting
Overall Feedback:
70% positive
74% were impressed with water tank capacity, while 26% weren't
When ironing or sitting, my iron leaks water because the water tank is not sealed properly.
When the tank is less than half full, I have to fill it more often which defeats the purpose of its size.
70% found the temperature control helpful, yet 30% faced problems
I suggest waiting until the steam buttons light up to ensure the soleplate is hot enough for a solid steam burst.
I noticed that the iron heats up quickly even after setting it to off on the resting side of the base.
On the hottest setting, the iron gets very hot and maintains its heat.
The heat is inconsistent and there is no guide for what setting to use with what material.

63% liked the steam output, however 37% didn't
I noticed that there was no steam at medium or high setting when I pressed the buttons. However, I found that pressing the forward pointy part of the triangle produced loads of steam. The buttons are shaped like triangles.
For optimal steam output, press both left and right steam buttons simultaneously and with even normal pressure towards the front/center of the button.
The steam output is inconsistent and unreliable. Overfilling can cause hot water to leak all over you.
I have experienced very little to no steam output from the steam iron, despite having water in the tank and the light indicating it is ready to steam.

64% liked the steam burst function, although 36% encountered issues
The steam function works perfectly for ironing my little quilt projects.
After heating the iron on the highest setting for about 10 minutes, I can get a burst of steam by pushing both steam buttons.
To get continuous steam, I need to hold the buttons in after getting a short burst of steam.
I called the company and was informed that the iron only produces steam bursts via the side buttons, not continuous steam. However, it did not produce steam bursts either. I also hadn't read it in the description.
85% found the design lightweight
The steam-iron is lightweight enough for me to manage it without fatigue, even with my arthritic hands.
71% appreciated the auto shut-off, whereas 29% raised concerns
I noticed that the iron gets hot and does not have an auto shut-off feature. It would be better if it had an auto-shut off safety.
82% appreciated the anti-drip feature, whereas 18% raised concerns
When filled with water for steam in the upright position, the iron leaks.
After 2 weeks, the iron started leaking and the steam feature did not work.
I noticed that the plate is misaligned and water is dripping out of the iron.
