What does everyone think about the old fashioned cordless ones that you put on the stove versus the 'newer' ones with the cords? My opinion: I used both and I like the ones that you put on the stove better. What do you think?

I was only 11 years old, claiming I could press hair, knowing I couldn't.  After 'experimenting' on a few heads I got good at it.  I admit to burning some ears, but I NEVER burned anyone's hair off though. Also, I remember the smell. You could walk in a house and tell when someone was pressing some hair back in the day.
