craftgrrl | sewing is a hobby, not a form of weight lifting

Hi everyone!
Here is an odd question about pressing seams:
I have a disability, so the range of motion and strength in my arms is very limited. I love sewing very much, but am greatly hindered in completing a project in a timely fashion, because I have to get someone else (ie: my boyfriend) to press the seams down for me. He doesn't always have time to drop everything for me, and I would prefer to complete a project without assistance (who wouldn't!).

The iron we have is big and heavy, and the ironing board is so high, it can't be reached from my wheelchair.
I was wondering if anyone knew of any online stores, or makes and models of irons I could look for, that might be lighter, smaller, and easier to manage. The smaller, the better.

I am completely frustrated.

All help is always appreciated.
