An Excellent steam Iron [Posted on 2008-11-14] My wife was looking for a steam Iron that produces a lot of steam to ease pressing shirts.
She is extremely satisfied with the Rowenta DZ9080 Advancer Iron. Everything about it is nice: large and steady flow of steam, regulating the heat, safety when not in use...
The only little problem...because of its strange shape, it is very difficult to store it, hanging on a support close to the ironing table as we did with our previous iron.
Rowenta Advancer Iron unreliable [Posted on 2008-11-17] Rowenta DZ9080 Advancer Iron we found to be unreliable. Did not work properly. it keeps cycling on and off when trying to iron clothes. Requested a replacement. Hope it works better.
GREAT IRON IF IT KEPT WORKING [Posted on 2008-11-18] This was a great iron for about 6 months. Its soleplate is great, glides smoothly over fabric and doesn't stick. I primarily use it for ironing clothes but also use it when sewing and it worked great for both. The first problem I had was it would no longer heat. The gauge light would stay on yellow indefinately. I sent it off at my expense to a repair center and it was returned about 2 months later. About a month after that I was ironing a dress and it began to smoke (basically caught fire). I had to take it outside for fear it would catch something in the house on fire. I called Rowenta and customer service had me send it back to the same service center but this time at their expense. He assured me I would most likely receive a new iron however approx. 2 monthds later my same old iron was returned supposedly fixed. I used it for about another 2 months or so and it caught fire again! By this time the warranty had run out so I just threw it in the trash. So basically it just bearly lasted a year.
Rowenta Irons [Posted on 2008-11-19] I can say over the last 12 years we have owned a top of the line Rowenta Iron. I guess over the those 12 years we have owned at least 8 irons. I have never sent them in for repair. It is much easier for me to just spend another $100.00+ dollars for a new Iron rather then send it in for repair and wait. Of the 8 we have owned 4 have been tossed due to leaking water or excessive leaking of water. 1 has caught fire where the cord goes into the back of the iron. 2 quite getting hot. 1 had the control knob get to where you could not turn it on. This works out to purchasing a new iron every 1.5 years.
We iron or that is I iron all of our clothes weekly, usually over a two or three evening period. The Rowenta Iron is by far the best I have ever used. For me the cost and aggrevation is worth it due to the time savings these irons provide when ironing up to 10 pair of pants and 12 shirts at a minimum per week not to mention other items.
I highly recommend this product to anyone who irons a lot or wants a professional look.
Remember when you use an electrical product that has knobs, switchs, and water associated with it, you will eventually have a problem, some sooner then later, it all depends on the amount of use.
If I took our laundry to the cleaners each week our average cost to have everything washed and pressed would be $70.00 a week. This equates to approximately $3,360.00 dollars for a year. That buys a whole lot of $100.00+ irons.
rowenta iron [Posted on 2008-11-25] So far this has been a great purchase. I wanted a very good quality iron and found it in this product. The previous ones were too light and soon quit operating properly but this one is doing well.
