Another idea is just don't put water in your iron. If you need a little steam lightly mist the area with a bottle of water. That way you don't have to get rid of the Rowenta, but you also don't have to deal with a leaky iron!
I agree! I have a Rowenta Pressure and Steam Iron and on the directions it recommended not to use tap water or distilled. Spring water without minerals added is what I use. Haven't had a problem yet.
