Does this Iron have floating plates?

No it does not have floating plates. But I will say that it is the best flat iron I have ever bought and the wand is fun to use just be careful not to burn your arm like I did.

Yes, mine did come with such a plate. However, that was three years ago. So you should double check with the manufacturer.

No they aren't, but it is a great iron and with your hand movement maybe you can curl it. Love this iron!

No it doesn't. It is the old and simple version of an iron, that's why y choose it.

I liked the fact that it floats above the fabric. I do like this iron but the water does leak and I'm not happy about that.

It doesn't, which is the only negative to it. BUT, with that being said, it is a GREAT iron for the cheap price. It gets really hot really quick, and my hair that never curls, actually stays curled.

Yes they do. The SS is non magnetic, but a magnet is strongly attracted to the rolled edge, si it must have a steel bar in there. I don't get mine wet in my use, so no rust.

No it does not float. It is made from machined aluminum and is actually quite heavy.

Yes, and it also has two pairs of straps on the under side that pull it snug - these straps hold to each other with Velcro making it very easy to pull it tight and conform to your ironing board. The surface will still be very slightly puffed up but if you run your hot iron over the cover - basically iron the cover without any clothes on it, in about 3 passes of your iron it becomes very flat and just right to use.

Yes, its light but very sturdy. About the weight of an Ironing Board, maybe a little lighter. I am very happy with the design and function. RB

I love this iron. It is because it is a very easy glide and that you do no lifting that I like it. Automatic touch lowers and raises it. In my opinion it would be a good idea for you. It would be more the correct height for your ironing that would be more the problem.

No. Just the flaps that support an iron have to be bent slightly and the four rubber studs provided pressed into the flaps

No. This model has a stainless steel soleplate. My original had a non stick soleplate. In spite of the fact that this is stainless steel, I have never had anything stick to it. It's great for upright steam or just to hover over the fabric and steam without touching. It definitely gets the wrinkles out. I really like this one compared to other irons that I have used.

If you are talking about the slight "gap" between the soleplate and the body of the iron I think that is a design feature. Mine has that and there is no adverse effect when ironing. I like the heft of the iron and the ceramic finish on the soleplate really makes the iron glide. I have experienced no leakage of water from the iron unlike the cheap ones I had in the past, but I do not full the water tank to the brim. It makes ironing dress shirts a breeze.

No, it's just the flat iron. This is one of the best flat irons I've ever purchased. I got a second one for my mother shortly after i purchased one for myself.
