I have used Rowenta in the past but they will start leaking. My hubby who can fis irons says that it is a rubber seal that has dried and now leaks. Can not fins one to replace it and Rowenta will not just sell him the seal. I stopped using Rowenta. Bought a new Oscilo just recently but have not tried it yet. Use the old Black and Decker I have for ironing clothes works well. Also purchased a dry ironfrom Vermont stores to do all my applique with no holes. Works well in quilting to but just use a spray bottle of water.
