IRON
#4
The booklet that comes with the Rowenta irons says to use tapwater not distilled water in your iron. I had always been told the reverse with steam irons. I have had my Rowenta for about 4-5 years using tapwater and have had no problems with leaks.

I have had my Rowenta's for more than 5 years now and don't have a problem with them. I have a large iron and the small travel iron. I don't remember where I read this but if you live in an area that has a lot of lime or calcium in the water use 1/2 water 1/2 distilled. This is what I do and do not have a single problem with spitting or leaking. I also wonder if my cheaper irons would have lasted longer if I had used the mixture.

I have had 2 Rowenta irons and the first one was good for about 18 months the last one lasted less than a year.
I am not going to invest in another one. I bought a cheap Black and Decker at Walmart and it seems to be doing the job so far.

I have two Rowenta's. The only thing I HATE about them is the auto shut off. I want the dang think hot when I go to press. I have heard alot of good things about WM's cheap irons. Then if they break or leak, toss it and get a new one. You can buy 3 or 4 of those for what I gave for my Rowenta's.
