My sister has requested a "good" iron for Christmas. How on earth do I know a good iron from a not so good one?? I have no idea what to look for. (And yeah, I figure a good one costs more, but I don't want to pay more for something that isn't any better, either!)

Oh, and I mean an iron for her clothing, not for golf! LOL Good answer if she takes it up, though! :-)

A good iron has
a retractable cord

at least 6 levels of heat

a sensor that turns it off after it hasn't been used for a period of time

a non stick bottom

a sprayer on the top

a clear view of the water level inside

I would estimate $50-$60 at a department store.
Remember this is a good iron, not a great one. They have ones at the spec. stores for over $100 that have even more features.

The best iron is a Rowenta and they start at around $60 and go upwards to $200. Find out what your sister considers to be a good iron and then fulfill those requirements but a Rowenta would take care of her.

Any that fits her height, stance, strength, etc. Personal preference is most important in selecting golf clubs so let her choose her own.
