My first Rowenta was a fantastic iron. It stopped steaming after about 11 years, so I purchased an even better Rowenta for big $$. It was a professional model instead of a home model, so it only had a 6 month warranty. So, during month 7 it began to leak, spit water, etc. I replaced it with a $27.00 Shark I found at Kroger's and love it! Light weight, stainless steel soleplate, tons of steam! I doubt I would ever pay big $$ again for an iron. I could have had 3 Sharks for the price I paid for my lemon of a Rowenta! Although I love my Rowenta travel iron!
