I have been buying Rowenta irons for years. I have found nothing that compares in feel and performance. The only problem is that I have been buying Rowenta irons for years ... I have seldom had one last more than a year or two before it start leaking water onto your clothes as you iron them. My ironing board sits over carpet but, it seems like if you knock it off onto the floor one time, there's a good chance it will leak from then on. So, what it comes down to is if you can keep from ever dropping it, it is the best iron I know of. I would add that the reason I started buying Rowenta irons was because the other irons I previously had leaked water so, it might just be that all manufacturers have the problem of water leaking from cracks in the tank.

It doesn't seem to emit steam unless I actually keep pushing the burst of steam button. The box the iron came in smelled of cigarettes. I guess the prior owner was a smoker so I discarded the box and then thoroughly cleaned the outside of iron with wipes. I always wanted a Rowenta iron but it is really nothing special, my 15 year old cheap iron works better but the cord was getting brittle.

This is the best iron I have ever used. I had an older Rowenta that I held onto that worked well. When it fell and was broken beyond repair, I bought the DW580. It is amazing. Some reviewers complain of heavy weight, but it's lighter than my old Rowenta. There are no issues for me with the water running out because of the strong stream output - it doesn't run out so fast, but when it does, just add some more water. Overall this is a most excellent iron, your clothes will attain a new level of smooth. This review is brought to you by a dude who normally reviews things like power tools and computer equipment. So the fact that I took this much trouble to write a review for an iron should tell how impressed I am.

Years ago a friend who sells sewing machines recommended the Rowenta. At the time I felt it was too expensive. When my iron gave out recently, I decided to go for it, i.e., the Rowenta. My only regret is that I didn't buy it years sooner. There is no comparison between it and less expensive irons. The first thing I ironed was a Ruana (shawl) which usually takes me a good ten minutes to iron, and I had it done in about three minutes . . . what a joy. It's not even a chore to iron with the Rowenta. It's sturdy, has a good head of steam, and gets the creases out miraculously quickly and efficiently. For anyone who has any ironing to do . . . and who values their time . . . I highly recommend the Rowenta.

I love the shape of the iron - the narrow front part gets into the areas around shirt collars nicely. The iron is no heavier than most quality irons. It heats up in a short time, and one of the best things? It shuts itself off if unattended for 7 minutes in the upright position, or in 30 seconds if it falls on its side or on the flat surface. Love the safety factor. I actually enjoy ironing, and this iron makes it even more enjoyable. I've been telling my friends about it.
