The irony of an iron: Rowenta D-Effective Iron

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: Avoid Rowenta. If you buy, expect frustration, disappointment, and wrinkled clothing for a few weeks while waiting for a replacement.
Review: My wife and I had to return this iron when, just days after the warranty expired, the auto-off system died. Rowenta allowed us to replace this iron by a new one (actually, another model, this model is no longer available... no wonder why). Here's...

Bought my last Rowenta

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2008
Review: I have been using Rowenta irons for about the last 10 years. I've had some that only lasted a little over a year and then some that lasted 2-3 years. I would always look for sales so I would have another one on hand when the other one died! What's...

Flashing Red Light / Meltdown

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2009
Review: Worked good for a year, then totally overheated and the red light wouldn't stop flashing. Smelled like it was about to burst into flames. Makes a good over-priced book end or paperweight; just cut the cord off.

worked well until it broke

Date of Review:  Jun 7, 2009
Review: This was the most expensive and the best iron I ever had. It worked really really well and I thought it was worth the expense. Then it broke. The problem was, it would just shut off in the middle of ironing. Repeatedly. Unusable unless I was willing...

AHA! Made in China!What happened to the Rowenta we all grew to adore?

Date of Review:  Jul 28, 2008
Review: Very simply, when you purchase a product, no matter where it was designed, if it was made in Chine, expect the worst, and be prepared to be surprised and pleased if it lives up to its claims.

My wife was confused when the variable lever...

This Iron is Fancy looking junk - buy something else

Date of Review:  May 20, 2007
Review: My first Iron was a sunbeam...I used it rarely, yet it managed to start rusting on the steam holes - not good for Ironing. When it failed, after little use, I thought I'd make a moderate "upgrade" to Rowenta quality....HA! I realize the cheaper...

A Blatant Lie By Rowenta

Date of Review:  Jun 25, 2006
Review: I wanted an iron that would neatly press my husband's dress shirts for work, so I bought this iron. I also liked the vertical steam and no-drip features.
I decided to try the iron out on a dress I needed to wear for a wedding, using the...

Plenty of steam

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2007
Review: Nice looking, good price and with good features. Weight is just right. Not to heavy. Iron is much better than previous reviews. They must not have read manual.

Biggest piece of junk ever!

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2008
Review: I recently replaced my 10 year old cheapo Black & Decker iron and decided to "upgrade" to a Rowenta. What a mistake!
Worked fine for the first couple of weeks and now the iron won't stay heated due to the auto off feature kicking in every 30...
