I have a question to all of you. I am looking to get a new steam iron and was wondering everyone's thoughts on brand quality. Am leaning toward the Rowenta. I have been reading customer reviews and they are scaring me' Talking about leaking and life span any thoughts? Thanks

Welcome from Alabama. I have heard alot of the same. I use a cheap one from Walmart but I never put in water. I have a spray bottle with water in it for when I need steam. They last so much longer. I also have a spare iron in the closet, I think that helps them last even longer. Irons only go out in the middle of the night for me.

Welcome from NM. You will get good and bad reviews for the Rowenta. I've had three, 2 leaked and I followed all manufacturers instructions. If and when the 3rd on goes I won't buy another Rowenta. Why did I get others after the first one leaked--found them new at Tuesday Morning and Big Lots at a great discount price. Also hate that it shuts off if left unused for a few minutes--have to wait for it to heat up again to press seams. I know this is a safety feature but still...
