So far, so good.,
My old Rowenta died. Well, it fell on the floor and broke, so maybe it committed suicide. That old iron was easily the longest-lasting iron I’ve ever had. I find they don’t last long, for me. Although maybe I am to blame, in that I never clean them out. Either way, I had a coupon for Bed Bath & Beyond and had to iron my clothes, so off I went…

They have a few choices there, and what I wanted was something decent that had a retractable cord. My old one didn’t have the retractable cord, and storing it was a pain. This model was the only one in the store with a retractable cord, so I got it.
It’s a powerful iron. Works very well.
Two things I don’t like:
1) It’s top heavy. Or something. Maybe the base is too small. TWICE right after I bought it, it fell off my ironing board while resting there. That was really annoying. The slightest bump to my board will send this thing to it’s doom. I’m glad it still works after that. Annoyed me.
2) The water compartment is a dark blue, and so it’s really difficult to see through and see the water level.
3) Because of the big back end, you can’t quite get a feel for how small the actual ironing surface is, so as you iron you really need to pay attention to what you’re doing.

OK that was 3 things. Nobody reads this anyway!
I DID like that it filled up with water OK. My old one would gurgle and spill a lot. The opening is still painfully small (WHEN will someone create an iron with an opening for the water that’s bigger than my pinky nail!!?) It doesn’t come with a water pitcher thing, but I still have my old one from several irons ago and use that just fine. The buttons for spray and steam and nice and big and I have no problem with them.

Overall I’m happy with it. We’ll see if it stands the test of time. I iron a lot. What can I say, I’m a classy guy!!!!

|Great Iron so far,
Coming from sub $20 irons in the past, I decided to invest a little more money this time around with hopes that it lasts longer that a couple of years. I’ve heard about Rowenta and liked how this model has the retractable cord as well as the 300 steam holes and stainless steel plate. What a huge difference this iron makes compared to my old cheap “disposable” irons! This iron gets out creases that my old iron was never able to do. I’m no expert at ironing and perhaps the $100+ models might be even better, but for my purposes of ironing my work shirts this iron is perfect; I just hope it lasts.

|I like this iron!!,
I like this iron. It is not heavy and the steam system works great. I like the cord retraction, but could have had a longer cord.
