The Iron That Thinks for You
Every quilter has experienced the anxiety of a traditional iron sitting on fabric while attention shifts to something else -- the risk of scorching, browning, or damaging fabric is real and common. The Oliso Iron Pro Plus eliminates this risk with its signature iTouch technology: a sensor in the handle detects when you release your grip and automatically lifts the iron off the fabric on small retractable legs within seconds. When you reach for the iron again, it lowers back to the pressing surface. The iron manages its own resting position so you can focus on your quilting work.
The Tula Pink limited edition brings Tula's distinctive design personality to this professional-grade tool, making it both a functional studio upgrade and an aesthetic statement piece for quilters who appreciate the intersection of utility and style.
The Pro Plus Advantage
The Pro Plus is Oliso's premium model -- higher steam output, more precise temperature control, and greater soleplate heat evenness than the standard Oliso model. For quilters pressing large numbers of seams, wide fabric panels, and quilt tops in sustained sessions, the Pro Plus maintains consistent performance throughout the session without the temperature fluctuation that causes pressing inconsistency in lesser irons.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly does the auto-lift engage?
The iTouch sensor raises the iron within a few seconds of releasing the handle grip. The response is fast enough to prevent fabric damage in normal pressing workflows.
Does the auto-lift affect steam performance?
Steam output continues briefly as the iron lifts. There is no functional impact on pressing quality -- the lift mechanism is mechanical, not steam-related.
Is the Tula Pink edition the same iron as the standard Pro Plus?
Identical performance -- same iTouch technology, same steam output, same soleplate. The Tula Pink edition is a design collaboration; the iron itself is functionally identical to the standard Pro Plus.
Is the Pro Plus appropriate for delicate fabrics?
Yes -- temperature control is precise and the multiple settings cover the full range from delicate synthetics to cotton. Use a pressing cloth on delicate fabrics as additional protection.
