Irons Reviews

I bought into the whole Rowenta name thing. I got the Rowenta Actipress home, read the directions, re-read the directions (I've never paid so much for an iron in my life, wanted to get it right). Yes, stainless steel soleplates are lovely and glide and hover all over your clothes. But, as I finished the final sleeve of my hubby's XL Linen shirt ...drip, Oh did I hit the mist button, no checked that, drip, drip, leak, drip. Before the ironing was over 2 almost finished linen shirts had to go into the laundry again because of the water marks ugh! I HATE that! So, I returned the Rowenta and got the T-Fal diffusion iron also with 1400 watts, approx. the same weight, and a nice smooth soleplate that emits the same amount of steam for HALF the price and NO DRIPS!

By the way, with the Rowenta I tried everything in the directions, turning up the heat, using tap water- then using half and half as the directions advise if you have hard water --nothing helped this thing just drips and leaks.

I got this iron a week ago and wish I had more ironing to do! I had been using an iron that I have had for about 10 years and boy should I have bought this one a long time ago! I used to dread ironing. This iron has me searching for more wrinkled clothes to iron!<br /> <br /> It is lightweight, easy to use. Very smooth ironing and perfect steam control. The burst of steam function works wonders for ironing in creases -- and eliminates the need for spray starch or sizing spray.<br /> <br /> It has a self clean function that, although I have not had it long enough to need yet, will be a great feature to have!<br /> <br /> I definitely recommend this to anyone who hates to iron and needs a new iron!

I purchased this iron because I was tired of getting Black and Deckers. I must say, I am very pleased with the performance of this iron. The wrinkles come out the first time without having to go behind myself to remove excess wrinkles. You also are able to iron easy without applying much pressure unlike most irons. I highly recommend this iron, it is definitely worth the price.

I agree with other reviewers, this iron makes short work of the task of ironing. It pumps volumes of steam on demand, and heats up in a snap.

I received this iron as a gift and it's the best Iron I have ever used. It heats up quickly and glides over the garment like butter. It also has the automatic shut off incase you forget.

I would recommend this to anyone who is in the market for a new Iron.

Seems like this Rowenta DE871 Professional Steam Iron works good. I'm acquiring one for myself. I've been researching for sometime now and I think I found one that will work wonders based on the reviews.
