The Rowenta travel irons aren’t any good, either. It was $45 and the first time I took it with me to a retreat, it died on the second day. There was a popping sound and then the Rowenta started smoking. I went home and tossed my home Rowenta into the trash. Now, I like my Oliso.

I got a decent iron from Walmart. works fine. i spray with water, never fill the iron.

I use a Shark that I got at Walmart several years ago. I like the weight of it and it heats well. It has automatic shut off which some people don't like but it is ok with me. It heats up quickly if it turns off between blocks. It requires distilled water for steam and the spray feature. So far, so good.

I had a rowenta my brother ruined it with distilled water, spent 150 on an oliso leaked right out of box and didn't heat up like i liked went to qvc and replaced it with another rowenta. And havent had issues i much prefer it to the oliso

Black and Decker - inexpensive and works well. I do use water that goes through my fridge filter.

I love my Rowenta iron. It's at least 15 years old, but I think even older. It gets really hot and it doesn't weigh a ton. However, I never put water in it or any iron. Just use a spray bottle when I need moisture.

This is the iron I will get next. This is a dry steam iron.https://reliablecorporation.com/coll...o-iron-station. Several of these to choose from on the website.

I bought a Shark not long ago from Kohls, it was about $50 but I had a 30% off plus a $10 off coupon so I consider that a good deal. It is a medium weight, good steam and I am very pleased with it

My Black and Decker just died. 2nd one in a year. Did not use water in either one, they both kept overheating and started getting a burning smell. Right now I'm without an iron.

I have an inexpensive Sunbeam. I use regular water in it, and have had no spraying or leaking problems, and has several heat settings. I do admire the ones Jenny and Donna use in their videos. Those must cost a pretty penny though!!
