I have had several Rowentas and have always loved the performance..it's my brand of choice. BUT-I saw the Olisio at a quilt show and really wanted it for the features. Then I started reading about all the glitches and breakdowns which stopped me cold. I'll pay $100 for a German iron but not for a brand I don't know.
Then I see we have a rep on the board who openly suggests unhappy purchasers call the company and the company will make it good...THAT is worth everything. sooo, now I'm back to thinking about the Olisio. Will have to go to a quilt show around ATL when it arrives and look at the iron again.l
