This iron leaks and spits after a few months. It may catch on fire. Review: This Rowenta does iron like a dream and produces tons of steam--for only 3 months. I purchased this iron on January 27, 2009 and I had to replace it today, April 26, 2009!? from Shopping.com I purchased this Rowenta iron a year ago,and it leaked from the first day I used it. I have put up with it for a year, and finally I have had it! from Amazon.com Rowenta DX-8800 1750-Watt Professional Iron I had this iron for a couple of years and it did a great job ironing my clothes until it started to LEAK WATER! from Amazon.com In March 2009, after I had just set my Rowenta Professional down to arrange a garment, I was startled to see flames shooting out the accordioned plastic cover that attaches to the rotating ball where the cord enters the iron. My ironing board caught on fire before I could unplug the iron, but I was able to put the fire out quickly. from Amazon.com I'm a guy and think the weight on it is perfect. i read a lot of people say that it was too heavy. I filled it to the max with water and found it to be just fine. Now the downside. from Amazon.com Some like stainless soleplates, some like other coverings. I've owned a bunch of irons over the last 40 years, in all the major brands, plus I use 2 Elnapresses part of the time. This is the second Rowenta I've had, having bought an excellent one 20 years ago only to have a family member break it in an accidental fall. It will be noticeable to someone accustomed to a lightweight iron that this is no lightweight. from Amazon.com This is my 2nd Rowenta and I'm still impressed with this brand. One great thing about this iron is that it's heavy, people don't realize that to iron clothes properly you need a heavy iron.....that way the iron does the work.....not you :-). from Amazon.com This is my third Rowenta in 26 years. I keep returning to this brand because of the weight it provides. from Amazon.com I bought this iron less than a year ago and I am having the same problems with water leaking and the iron turning off all the time. Well I am so disappointed that I am not sure I would buy another. from Amazon.com We purchased this iron afte much research and with high hopes. The cost alone should have made it a huge upgrade over the normal $[...] black and deckers etc.. from Amazon.com
