My $20 Rowenta iron
#25
I have a Rowenta I have had for about 10 years and it has been a great iron. It has auto shut off, sometimes it shuts off too soon. The only time it sputters is when I add water AFTER it is hot, so try not to do that any more.

My DH worked is a place that sold returns and overstock. Many of the Rowenta's he got in to repair leaked. That seemed to be the main problem. However, if I had been able to find one at that price, I don't think you could go wrong.

I have had no problems with my Rowenta, only that it too big to set beside my sewing machine..yesterday I found a little Black & Decker for 7.00 new, the size is just right and it is so light...but I won't give up my Rowenta for ironing clothes, yes, regardless what my DH says, I do iron clothes. Everyone have a wonderful day..and remember "broken things can become blessed things if you let God do the mending"

I had a Rowenta, hated it. It was unreliable to say the least. There are other posts on this board regarding the fire issue with these irons. Once I read about the fire hazard, I cut the cord off of it, sent an email to Rowenta and later just pitched it. I didn't want to take a chance on burning the house down.
