My perfect Pro

January 14, 2010
"I just got my 2nd. Rowenta after 30 yrs. My first one is still working but now lives at my daughter's. This is the best believe me. You'll never want to change one you use one. I like the professional because it's a little heavier than most, water capacity is more than most, it can be used as a steamer. It's like the bunny....it keeps running and running...."

"I love this iron. It is very light weight and is easy to use. It does not drip water and has an auto shut off. I would recommend this iron. It is also very easy to add water. It is also a very nice looking iron."

"I've always bought lower priced irons but then end up frequently replacing them. So this time I decided to spend more and hopefully get a better quality iron that won't need to be replaced so often. I've had it for about a month and really like it. It does not drip and leave water marks/stains like my old one. I am really pleased with it so far. I think it is going to be around for a long time. If you do a lot of ironing, make the spurge...I'll end up spending the same amount in the long run."

"Love the Iron - this is my third one the first two I had to return because they leaked water all the time and it was very annoying. Did not buy the Professional right away was determined not to buy another Rowenta after the 2nd. one, but after trying out several other brands I felt the Rowenta ironed the best. This one lasted alot longer then the first 2 without leaking & I've had this one for about 4 years now I'm in the process of getting another one. I need a good Iron, I Iron everything. It's a little pricey but it's worth it. They just have to do something about the water leaking! That is the only turn-off..."

"This product is good .I had to replace the cord on it .Now looks like the cord is gone again.I don't no if it is worth putting another cord on it or no.I have had it about 4 years.
Paying this kind of money I think it should last longer.It is only my husband and I that use it.We don't iron that often.

"I bought this iron for my mother and she can't even use it since it keeps leaking the water out....everything she irons gets water all over it. I thought this was going to be a great iron, but it ended up giving alot more problems during ironing."

Rowenta Professional Iron

March 9, 2009
"I have used Rowenta irons for many years. I had a disappointing experience with the iron prior to purchasing this one because it wouldn't steam properly. I was hesitant on which model to try next, and I have to say my experience with this particular model has been better than I anticipated. The weight of the iron makes managing wrinkles easier and I avoid using excess amounts of starch as a result. The one item that I would recommend when purchasing this iron is the sole plate cleaner. I seem to get build up on the iron despite having to use so little starch. I would absolutely recommend this iron."

"I had my first Rowenta for eight years and probably just needed a new cord, but decided to get a new one.I tried another brand for a short time. I decided to go back to the Rowenta Professional Iron and I love it. It does a great job of getting all the wrinkles out, uses tap water, so no more distilled bottled water sitting around. Has the self cleaning steam setting, sprays, or steam in bursts. I now am back to ironing with out a spitting, leaking iron."

Automatic shut off malfunction

January 18, 2009
"I purchased a professional Rowenta iron from Marshall Fields in 2000 with the intention of never purchasing another iron in my life. I researched, I read, and even consulted Consumer Reports, which gave the iron their highest rating despite its big price tag. After about two years the automatic shut off feature malfunctioned and we could not keep the iron on. I purchased a really cheap iron with the intention of sending my Rowenta in for service. According to the warrenty information, the iron had to be shipped to Chicago for repair at my expense. A couple of years ago I put the Rowenta in the "give away bag" because I never got around to sending it to Chicago. My $14 iron, which I hate, is still working after all these years."

Energy,time and money saver

December 17, 2008
"I purchased this Iron 2 years ago and it stills works like new. I use bottle water to refill it and never have buildups. My family clothes are always wrinkle free and since I don't have to use starch I only wipe it with a wet cloth after use. I iron one dozen men polo shirts in less than 20 minutes so I save time to spend with my family. No need to buy starch and very few trips to the laundry so I save time and money for a better quality life. And of course my enerygy bill is less!! I do recommend to always refill the iron with water (but never tap water) unless it is rayon,silk or polyester like fabrics. Although you can control if you want to iron with or without steam. Don't use near children since the steam is very powerful. If you use starch, always clean it after. It's worry free because it turns of automatically. This is the best brand ever! My mother is also in love of this product."

A must have!

November 2, 2008
"Why did I wait so long to make this purchase? The Rowenta Professional Iron is incredible.
I don't use spray starch or sizing anymore; the heat/steam give me "dry cleaner quality" appearance of creases on every item; and I cannot believe how it removes wrinkles from even an everyday tee shirt.
Impressive!
And a must have!!

"I bought a Black & Decker iron first and it just didn't do the job. I avoided ironing most of the time because i had to spend a lot of time re-ironing over and over and the iron was never hot enough.
Rowenta professional is excellent. It works the first time so you can finish the job much faster and it looks fantastic!

Great Iron

August 10, 2008
"I have always loved Rowenta Irons. I previously purchased a different model and was not pleased with it. After reading the reviews on this iron and the one I previously purchased, I exchanged it at my local Macy's. The iron is wonderful!!!!!"
