I bought my Precission Rowenta at Belk, 8 yrs. ago, and it has been very good to me. It is heavy enough to press with, and it has a gracious amount of steam. I love it! You girls that don't like their Rowentas' should get rid of them. We that love them will be happy to buy them at cheap prices at yard sales or where ever we find the ones you girls got rid of yours at. Thanks for your irons.
