I am on my second Rowenta Professional. My first one lasted 10 years and several drops on the floor. I like them a lot, but have found if I don't use distilled water (like it says NOT to), it will leak and dribble a bit, or if I fill it too full. To each, her own, I guess. I also have an old unknown brand one that I use occasionally that works fine too. I am one of those strange people who loves to iron. I iron all of my shirst and my DH's too.
