for better iron purpose... means that heavy iron would require less external pressure for ironing of clothes.....

one more reason , heavy base means higher heat capacity, means if the press remains off for some time (this usually happens) , the temperature does not change much.

Electric iron is made up of NIC(Nickel+Iron+Chromium).Thus,the base offers high resistance,does not get oxidised at high temperature(1000 degree Celsius)...
