HATE this iron.
I hate this iron….it’s heavy and bulky and hard to handle. It’s nothing like the previous Rowentas I’ve owned. I wish I hadn’t wasted my money on it. The fabric setting light is so dull, it’s practically unreadable!!!

Perfect Steam Iron
I had old version (Rowenta) over 25 years old. Until I purchased this replacement steam iron. I did not realize I was overworking myself. Now the ironing is smooth and easy. The weight the iron allows me to glide over the fabric and look professional when completed. I would purchase this steam iron again.

Professional-like iron with excellent steam
I have always had average irons. My trip to Australia changed all that when we had a similar iron in terms of steam capacity. This iron has massive steam capacity and makes ironing a breeze.

Bad iron
Too heavy. Steam button is hard to press. Iron goes into an error mode. Have to unplug to reset.

Satisfied with quality
Quality and good performance. I've been using rowenta for over a decade. I was disappointed the last one lasted less than 10 years. This one has some improvements though. More solid footing for standing upright. Better steam dispersal with holes on the faceplate. I hope this lasts a long time. Shirts come out wrinkless.

Not worth the price.
This iron takes forever to heat up. The price for this item is too high for the minimal performance that it provides. It takes forever to get hot and then not much steam is generated when using the product.

The heat controls are frustrating
I’ve had this iron for over a year. The weight is excellent, heat plate is top notch. My issue is your hand has to be in a certain position to use the steam function. That position is over the heat controls! When I’m ironing sheets or linen tablecloths, I use the steam trigger and I inevitably change the settings from the highest to the lowest because the control gets inadvertently touched. I hate this iron, despite the wonderful qualities. I’m swearing at it right now with a 120” linen tablecloth.
