Steam Irons
I have had two irons and many times asked people what iron they use and is it hot enough and do they like it. Not once did anyone (professional or otherwise) mention that I might want to check the wattage before buying. I was in Walmart the other day and watts stuck out at me and it dawned on me I didn't have a clue what mine was and maybe that is why I didn't like it. Long/short - mine is a Rowenta 1400 watt. No wonder it doesn't get hot enough for me. I saw them up to 1800 watts... lots of money though.
Just mentioning this so when asked about how hot an iron gets maybe the answer should be in watts?
I'm down to one iron. My Black and Decker that I thought was 'ok' wouldn't work after I cleaned it. I threw it away before checking the watts so I don't know that answer. :-( It was better than the Rowenta.
Just something to chew on. LOL
