Pros: Worked REALLY well for 7 months. Cons: It broke after 7 months. from Shopping.com I have never had a bad experience with Rowenta. And you cant beat the price of this one. from Amazon.com With this iron the job gets done without major effort and in an efficient way. The weight of the iron is perfect and the steam is well controlled. from Amazon.com I absolutely love my ROWENTA! I have decreased my cleaners bill dramatically! from Amazon.com I had the iron for a year and the electrical system started shorting out. I brought the issue to Rowenta support, who told me to stop using the item because it was dangerous. Since it was a few months out of warranty they would only give me $5 towards another one of their irons. from Amazon.com I received this iron from my MIL for Christmas 2007. I had asked for a Rowenta that wasn't too heavy, since I have carpel tunnel. This iron worked good, but not great. from Amazon.com This Rowenta model is a big comedown from Rowenta's previous quality. A previous DX1700 I owned lasted about 6 years with heavy usage. from Amazon.com After reading stellar reviews about Rowenta, I was fully prepared to fork over more than should ever be paid for an iron, despite the fact that I rarely iron. (My husband is far more fastidious than I am and the primary iron-wielder in our family.) from Amazon.com This particular Effective by Rowenta was my third Rowenta iron purchase in five years. I love how the Rowenta irons: fabulous steam, lots of pressure when you press the steam button, stainless steel soleplate that is silky and heavy (takes less time to press, the heavier the iron). from Amazon.com OK, obvious manufacturing defect, very annoying but it can happen. The 2nd one didn't leak after pouring the water and for good measure we let it sit for 24h. However, we just finished ironing with it for the first time and it drips constantly over the clothes. That will be the end of our Rowenta experience. from Amazon.com
