Rowenta Iron Steamer for Clothes, Focus Stainless Steel Soleplate, 400 Microsteam Holes, Powerful Steam Iron, Lightweight, Leakproof, 1725 Watts

This Rowenta iron heats up fast and delivers strong, consistent steam that easily removes tough wrinkles. The stainless steel soleplate glides smoothly, and the microsteam holes really make a difference. I also love the retractable cord and clear LED display. Solid, high-quality iron that makes ironing quicker and easier.

I read many reviews on this iron and I think they have upgraded this model. First, the temperature dial is not that easy to move so brushing your hand on it when picking it up will not move the dial. My iron did not leak at all. I filled it to the MAX level and turned it on. It did not leak before it heated up or while it was hot. I even put the iron horizontal and there was no leaking. The steam function worked fine. The instructions were very informative with pictures. The wool setting of two dots (eco) will not steam unless the steam setting switch is also on eco. Then a smaller amount of steam is produced. It says that in the instructions. The auto off is on when the auto off red light on top of the handle is flashing. When that red light is not flashing the auto off feature is not on and the iron is working on the setting you have it on. To reactivate the iron from being off you just move the iron horizontally back and forth a couple times and it comes back on. The light that is very hard to find and see is the "Pilot" light. The one that tells you the iron is heating up. It is located on the left side bottom of the handle and it is sort of back under the center of the iron and it is a very faint orange. In order to see it you have to look for it and tip the iron a bit to see it. It is on only when the iron is heating up. The instructions say not to iron until that light goes off. This iron's spray and burst buttons worked fine. This iron steam presses very nicely on a flat wool ironing pad. I have not tried the vertical steaming because I don't have any clothes or items to vertically press. I sew and quilt and I use an iron for my sewing projects. So I use the highest cotton setting when I iron and this does great on that setting. It does glide over fabrics very well. I did not time the time it took to heat up. But I would guess it got to the cotton setting in a minute or two. It is an expensive iron but it has a lot of nice features like how the cord is attached to the iron on a pivoting ball to help the cord stay out of the way. The cord is about 7.5 feet long. The iron is not too heavy and not too light. It does have the calcium cleaner on it for easy cleaning of the iron. It pressed serious creases in fabric that was folded many times so it was 12 layers of fabric. Ironed it flat with the cotton setting and burst of steam. So far I like this iron. :)

Rowenta did a great job with their packaging for environmentally conscious consumers like myself. The iron does have some weight on it, just over 3lbs, but it was still very comfortable when I used it. The weight is essential for heavier fabrics. The stainless steel Soleplate looked flawless. The iron was tested for leaking and so far No leaking whatsoever after testing it myself after filling the tank just below the MAX line. Instructions were easy to follow. I set the setting to desired setting, in my case, I was ironing 100% linen sheets. I glided the iron on the fabric and used the steam Boost button on stubborn wrinkles. It left incredible results, minimal to no wrinkles on the fabric. No leaking during or after. The iron seems of good quality overall, wish there was no plastic components, but not a deal breaker. Value for money will depend on how it performs in the next several months and years. Cleanup was easy, instructions recommend letting the iron cool completely before emptying any water left inside the tank, and store upright. I plan to test the iron for the next several months on different fabrics and update of any changes if any.

This is a very nice iron; it feels nice, it irons quickly, and the steam is wonderful. This iron comes in a box with a German flag, but the plate on the iron states "Made in China". More pros, the dial clicks into place, you're likely to move it when you pick up the iron. Filling the iron is easy, no funnel! You can control the amount of steam. It has a calcium filter. It uses tap water. The ball joint cord makes it even easier. The cons: The iron heats up quickly. There isn't a light to indicate when it's ready to use, even though the manual says that it has one. If you're standing next to the iron, you will hear a click. There's no power off. The manual tells you to unplug it when you're done, but then you're unplugging an appliance that is on. If you walk away for eight minutes, it will turn itself off. I would rather be able to turn it off and unplug it rather than remember that I left it plugged in. This is inconvenient when getting ready in the morning. Overall, I like it very much, however, the user manual should be updated and the box should tell us it's made in China.

Excellent iron. Great amount of steam. Heats up fast. Make sure that you run the iron on the ironing board for when starting to iron after it heats up as the excess steam at the start may burn/stain your outfit. Once this is done, the iron is brilliant.

This was terrible regarding info. Turned out it’s from America and not compatible for UK. I had an adapter hoping it would be ok and sadly it fused so could not return. I re-read info and no where did it warn it was non compatible voltage so very disappointed don’t buy if ordering from uk as completely shocked no warning was given and why was it sent from that location when not compatible for UK use. Extremely disappointed and the lost of money distressing

Don't order it if you live on the Continent. Voltage not suitable and complicated to get a refund.

Probably the best iron on the market . I love cotton bedding but it is fiendishly hard to get the creases out , this iron smooth glides over cotton and really gets deep creases out . Marvellous. I also like a heavy iron in my hand , if you are elderly , maybe this iron would be a bit sturdy for you , I know my elderly mother would say it is too heavy for her , especially if you are doing a marathon family iron . I love it and give it 5* .

Llego en tiempo y es un buen producto
