Don't know which Rowenta I currently have - might be 'Professional'. Not sure of exact model number. I'm probably in the minority here but I do like my Rowenta. I'm on my second and getting ready to purchase a 3rd if DH can't resolve my cord issue. Was just looking at the 'Focus' the other day. About $100 at Sears. Haven't looked elsewhere but it was the highest wattage and had the most vent holes of the models they had. I've never had issues with them dripping or spitting unless I've overfilled. It is VERY important, IMO, to make sure you read the instruction manual to see if your particular Rowenta needs tap or distilled water. I believe that is the key to having them last. My current one is probably 10 years old and I'm having issues with where the cord comes out of the iron. The other Euro Pro iron that I have has the same issues so I'm sure it's me and not the iron's themselves.
