Welcome from NM. You will get good and bad reviews for the Rowenta. I've had three, 2 leaked and I followed all manufacturers instructions. If and when the 3rd on goes I won't buy another Rowenta. Why did I get others after the first one leaked--found them new at Tuesday Morning and Big Lots at a great discount price. Also hate that it shuts off if left unused for a few minutes--have to wait for it to heat up again to press seams. I know this is a safety feature but still...
