I have three Rowentas. All 3 are different sizes and weights. I found 1 of them at thrift store, one at a antique type store with label barely used, and one at Goodwill. I paid approximately $5-6 for each. Only one did I have to have repaired and is like a brand new one now. They are older models made in Germany. I love all 3 of them. They don't leak, they get hot, and are very nice irons. I am satisfied and have no need to venture out! Occasionally I see a Rowenta at the thrift stores, and I always have to pick it up, see if it is Made in Germany, etc. They do still pop up now and then. I know buying them this way is a risk, but so far I'd say I've been quite lucky.
