Here are ten sets of seven letters, each consisting of only 1-point tiles, that have only one anagram, which is a fairly everyday seven-letter word, and which also contain two Is (as a bonus, one has three Is).  What are those everyday words?

AAIINRT
AEIINRR
AIIILNT
AIILNOS
EIILLRS
EIILORS
EIILSTT
IILLNST
IILNORS
IINOTTU

And, here are five extra sets, not quite so easy, also containing only 1-point tiles that also have only one anagram and with two Is.  They are the sorts of combinations of letters that you may well find on your rack, since Is do have a habit of arriving in pairs.  What are these not quite so everyday words?

AEIILNN
AIILNTU
EEIINST
EIILNOT
IIOSTTU
