An Iron for Grown-Ups

I needed a new iron since I was sending my old one to the country house, and sprang for a Rowenta Focus DZ5080. I'd been using a fairly basic teflon-coated Black & Decker 380, which had been just fine. I chose it because it seemed like a premium product, was built in Germany (I wanted to find something made in the USA, but found no irons manufactured here. No wonder our balance-of-trade is so bad), and looked well-designed.

I've used it just a few times so far, but like its solid feel, electronic features, the way it takes, stores and deploys water/steam and long cord. You can use tap water, it doesn't need distilled. The nose is pointy and gets around buttons nicely.

It does not have teflon on its soleplate and I hope it doesn't start to "stick" over time. The dial goes to "minimum" but doesn't click to "off" -- there is no "off" -- which I'd prefer. The dial is a little hard to see under the handle.
