I had a Rowenta and it worked like a charm, then I gave it to my daughter, big mistake. So went out and bought at Oliso I like it every much, although it took a little time before I remembered you didn't have to set it upright, which makes it so easy to use once you get use to it. Not leaking problems so far, owned it over two years now...hope I didn't speak to soon about that. Saw some one bought a Shark, don't know anything about them wonder why she likes it so much>
