Portable mini iron

Ever go on a trip and had to drag a heavy iron with you so you could take care of your favorite shirts? No more sweating! In Japan, they’re selling portable miniature irons for that purpose. You’ll have a hard time finding an excuse not to carry them with you next time you travel. The iron that looks like a toy measures a mere 10 cm x 6.3 cm x 5.1 cm, includes a 1.5 m long electric cord and weighs 246 g. It’s being advertised as a perfect iron for business travel and even for ironing clothes for dogs. The photo below shows some of these mini irons I found at a local Beisia Denki electronics store.
