Steam Station, Stainless Steel Soleplate, Professional Iron Steamer for Clothes, 1.1L Removable Tank, Fast Heat Up, 1800 Watts, Blue Clothes Iron, DG8624

I iron all kinds of albs and priest vestments which are made of materials that you have to iron hot and lots of steam to have nice creases . I had a Rowenta professional iron that lasted me over 20 years. However I did not allow anyone else to use my iron in my studio, one good reason ? anything lasts longer when one person uses it. So, I found myself having to replace my iron the old and faithful stopped working . I was trying to be frugal and not spend over $150 for another iron since there are so many out there. I did purchase five not all at the same time all different brands and they were horrible so I bit the bullet and I got another Rowenta. this particular model wasn’t the most expensive but it had everything that I needed. I particularly do not like the automatic shut off. I guess ill have to deal with that. Everything else is really good. Easy to use. Water does not drip and or leak out all over the items being ironed. Thats another pet peeve of mine. The tank does not last as long as I need it too, nothing I cant get use to. Over all it’s a good iron. Clean, glides smoothly over fabrics . Love the narrow front for small corners that never get ironed . I don’t like the electronic buttons . However , I will adjust. The iron Gets nice and hot, plenty of bursts of steam when you need it… i loved my older version. Im hoping this one , in this day an age will last just as long .

LOVE this steam iron. I love that you can add water to it while its on (our old Rowenta had to be turned off and cooled down before you could add more water; when on quite a bit of steam would leak out of the water fill cap and there was NO auto shut off). This iron is greatly improved, it doesn’t leak, it turns off after a certain amount of time automatically, and you can use it to iron with or without steam or just as a steamer for more delicate fabrics or curtains. Excellent iron, and wayyy better than a regular iron.

I purchased the Rowenta Steam Station to replace an earlier version because it has an excellent shot of steam, it holds a lot of water and because it stays on for 30 minutes before the auto shut off kicks in. This is important for sewers. It does go on standby after 8 minutes, but quickly revives itself with a push of a button. It is important to clean the calcium collector frequently if you have hard water--which is how I ruined the earlier one. After five months, the shot of steam stopped working consistently. I contacted the warranty department by email and after several emails verifying my purchase, I was issued a case number. I then called the warranty department with the case number and they emailed a UPS prepaid label to me. I packed it up and sent it to a repair shop on a Monday and received a repaired iron back about a week and a half later. I was shocked it took so little time. The iron works perfectly again. Very pleased with this product and the prompt repair.

The product itself is good and I mainly bought it to be lightweight. It is the guarantee that is terrible. I am a senior citizen and do not go all over. I paid $300 for this iron so it’s the only iron I have. The iron before a year old starting leaking and the way the cord is designed little holes came on the top of the cord. I called assuming they would take care of it quacking. I’m told I have to box this and take it 2 ups, than wait for a minimum of 3 weeks for them to look at and repair and send it back. So…. in the meantime what do you do for an iron! This is crazy and I hate to think how long I will wait if they can’t find a part. I just think a $300 iron should not have an problems in a years time and a customer should not have to wait until they get to it! Beware! Here is a follow up, I finally got my iron back from service. It came back all white all you it which took me an hour to clean up. Now when I go to iron white sand and little hard stones come out of the iron. I called customer service and they tell me they want me again to package this thing and send it back for repair. They were suppose to repair it not destroy it! Do you know how hard it is for a senior citizen to get this all together and get to the post office with it, not to say the only one making money off the deal is ups. What kind of service is this. The iron is great as long as you don’t have a problem, than forget it! They don’t know what service is. Go buy an iron that is good and backs their product up! Beware with Rowena.

I learned to iron as a boy. My mother had a serious car accident when I was in my early teens, and I needed to take over a bunch of domestic aspects of running our home. At the time, I didn't enjoy ironing, but I found it calming. While I can send my clothes to a laundry service, I enjoy the ritual of ironing on Sunday afternoons in preparation for the week. Since ironing needs to please and calm me, having the right equipment is paramount. This Rowenta iron is the right equipment for getting my clothes nicely smooth and creased. The quality of my ironing, in turn, creates enormous satisfaction as I see the week ahead's perfectly ironed shirts and trousers on the rack. The blast of steam shooting from the soleplate is indeed powerful; the creases you don't need do not stand a chance. Filling and unfilling water are simple, and the iron is ready to use from cold to steaming in about two and a half minutes. The cable is very long, enabling me to place the ironing board anywhere in the room I need. For storage, I put Velcro cable ties around the power cable when it is not in use, and the pipe between the tank and the iron fits into an organizer when not in use. Overall, this is a terrific iron. I have used it a lot, and it continues to work perfectly. I did need to clean off hardened starch residue with the Rowenta soleplate cleaner, which I reviewed separately; that process was easy and worked flawlessly. I pair this Rowenta iron with a large Brabantia Size C ironing board. A large ironing board is faster and more satisfying. Amazon sells a selection of original Brabantia covers in fun designs. This Rowenta iron is highly recommended.

Love this iron but would have liked a manual to be included.

My only frustration with them is that they don't last as long as they should. The first one had the power switch go bad about 2 years in. The 2nd one had the iron part fall apart. The 3rd one seemed to get stuck in the reset mode. It heated up fine but stopped steaming because I couldn't reset it. This one has great steam and I like it okay but there are a few things I dislike which account for the 4 stars: 1) I dislike irons with automatic shut off. I sit and sew for hours and sometimes the iron sits unused. This is a pain when it shuts off. 2) the power switch is no longer a toggle. It's a touch pad switch. The reason I dislike this is --I have my iron plugged into a smart plug where I can turn it on when I'm downstairs so it's warmed up when I get up to the sewing room to use it. That doesn't work with the touch pad power button. It has to physically be turned on. When I turn on the smart plug, the iron does not turn on, even if I had physically turned it on before. It's a minor inconvenience I suppose and time will tell if this type of power button is longer lasting as the toggle switched would wear out--which was why I did the smart plug to begin with. As far as how it irons--it's fabulous. I use it a lot for vertical steaming. I do historic costuming and I will simply hang my silk gowns with super full skirts up and blast them with vertical steam to get out the wrinkles. I will say that once you have used one of these irons, you'll never go back to a regular iron.

Excellent performance from the super iron ! Getting through the ironing in record time… Only wish I had bought it sooner. Easy to handle, like everything about it…

I hesitated for weeks before I bought this after having dealt with a bad Rowenta iron for years Did I really want to buy another of their products? However I am so glad that I did. This is the best iron a gay man could ever have. And the best product ever. I never write reviews but needed to on this purchase. All the positive things that people say are true. All the negative things are crap. This is the real deal. A couple things I wanted to know before I purchased…how long is the steam cord? About 7 feet. Can you put the steam generator on the floor…yes, you get all the steam you want and can reach to all the difficult spots. The best thing is that you have continuous steam if you want and don’t need to dampen clothes beforehand. This is a real time saver.

This is the 2nd iron i have received and they both worked for about a week and then have stopped working altogether so I have had to send them both back. I am not very happy with this.

Excelente y con gran potencia de vapor, muy práctica y fácil de usar, llegó en buen tiempo.

The smoke is coming out of the boiler. Will never order this brand again. The good reviews is only from USA customers, whatever they send to UAE is different quality cause other people here weren't happy either. Its a shame I didn't notice that before I placed the order

Not for European use
