I guess I'm different. I love my Rowenta iron. It is heavy and gets real hot and does not have an auto shut off. I think it does a great job with pressing. I bought this thing about 6 years ago and it was over $100.00 except I had a 40% coupon at JoAnns and they actually let me use it toward the iron. My only problem is my kids have dropped it several times and now even though it still works good, the bottom is held together with clear Duct tape.
