In evaluating the results, while a very exceptional result in any one of them may significantly affect performance, there is considerable latitude in the combination of results which will give satisfactory ironing performance, and too much significance is not given to minor differences in any one result.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>PDF Catalog<\/h4>\n<table border=\"1px\"
