I purchased a Delonghi 1750 watt iron and am in love with it!! I was a rowenta user and believer until the 4th one started spitting and stained a shirt I was ironing. You would think I would have learned after the first iron started to spit, but no it took me four!! Guess I am a slow learner!! Thank goodness it was not a finished quilt. I finally had had enough and went shopping. I got mine from kohl's online and it was on sale for 59.00. It is well worth the money. If you like steam, this iron is for you. If you don't like steam, just don't put any water in it. This is a heavier iron.
