Rowenta Access Stainless Steel Soleplate Steam Iron with Retractable Cord, Powerful Steam Diffusion, Auto-Off and Anti-Drip, 1725 Watts, Black Clothes Iron, DW2459

Years ago I asked my mother, a wonderful 'sewist' and her mother (my grandmother) was a seamstress-turned-tailor, what kind of clothing iron I should get. She said Rowenta. I'd never heard of it but spent the money and will never buy another brand of iron again. A quarter century later, my older Rowenta is still working but I wanted an upgrade, so I bought this during a Prime sale. What a wonderful new iron! Very easy to use: just add water to the tank, turn the dial, and iron. The heat levels are more precise, and the features are about the same as my previous Rowenta. What I really love about this new iron is the taper-pointed tip - it gets into those smaller folds and spaces where regular irons tend to stay on top of and eliminates wrinkles more efficiently. When I opened the box I was surprised at the larger size but it actually weighs LESS than my former iron. Easy on my wrists and my arm doesn't get fatigued when ironing while sewing clothing (which takes a LOT of ironing). My photograph is of the first shirt I ironed - it took only a little over a minute to iron the entire shirt, collar and all. Great value for the money, especially when Prime season comes. Rowenta for the win!

This iron is easy to use and comes with instructions. It heats up quickly and has a powerful steam function. The cord provides enough length to easily reach your ironing board without struggling. The iron surface is wide and makes wrinkle removal simple. Competitively priced and easy to use. Win win

In my opinion this iron is not heavy as some reviews stated. I absolutely love it! Plug it in and you will be ironing in no time. It glides smoothly over the fabric. I did accidentally melt the collar on one of my blouses, I underestimated how quickly this iron would heat up. This is without a doubt the best iron i have ever owned. I think nothing looks worse than someone wearing wrinkled clothing. If one has a decent iron it only takes a few minutes to make your clothes look nice. I have been living on my own for almost 50 years, so I have owned several irons. I love the retractable cord! Makes storage a breeze. The weight of the iron is sufficient to decrease the effort required to get wrinkles out. I do wish the water reservoir was a bit larger, but that is not a deal breaker for me. The temperature adjustment is in an awkward place which makes it a bit difficult to read. I do recommend that you use a pressing cloth if working with delicate fabric as i melted the collar on a synthetic blouse. Overall i am extremely pleased with my purchase!

The Rowenta Access Stainless Steel Soleplate Steam Iron offers excellent performance with smooth glide, strong steam output, and a convenient retractable cord, making it ideal for everyday ironing. But noticed some water leakage and inconsistent heat. Overall, it's a solid mid-range option for those seeking efficiency and comfort, especially on cotton and linen fabrics.

Honestly, it’s frustrating to see a product that could have so much potential fall short in so many areas. First off, the integrated unit design is supposed to streamline the experience, but all it does is limit versatility. I didn't realize it was all one awkward wonky piece that was downright hideous and impossible to use. Why can’t there be a temperature control option? It’s ridiculous that users must settle for a basic on/off button when customization is necessary. And don’t even get me started on the complete lack of user instructions! It's infuriating to have to figure things out on your own, especially when a little guidance could make a world of difference. Initial setup shouldn’t feel like navigating a maze—good customer support and clear instructions should be a given! Let’s be real: the high price tag is absolutely unjustifiable when the product lacks basic features that would actually enhance its functionality. It’s as though they expect consumers to pay a premium for something that isn’t even close to being worth it. If the company doesn’t step up its game and address these glaring issues, I can’t imagine many people will want to invest in this product. It needs serious improvement! Also, I cannot find any customer service information needed to extend the return date. My mother has been very ill and hospitalized, which has caused me to miss the incredibly short 30-day return window. If I had purchased this elsewhere, I would have gotten at least 90 days. I'm so angry and feel like I threw $75 out the window!

I had no idea what a good iron was until I spent a little money and purchased this. It is so great! It heats up super fast, irons incredibly well (I appreciate the weight so I don't have to press down too hard), doesn't get goopy (somehow, my old iron always got goop on it, which was a concern every time I had to use it due to the transfer concern), and shuts off automatically so you don't burn the house down. The steam function is fantastic -- no drippy water, just the right amount. Also, it looks really sleek -- like a serious piece of equipment. That's a minor point but these things are designed, and I appreciate the effort that was put into this one. I will leave it up to other reviewers to give a more in-depth analysis -- just wanted to put in my two cents based on decades of reluctant ironing until now.

Finally, an iron that’s heavy, but not too heavy to use. Great product!

Doesn't work in UAE withing 220 V

buenisima, vale cada peso muy recomndable

Spendendo una cifra così importante mi aspettavo un po’ più di cura - arrivato con scatola aperta all’interno plastica aperta, presa per USA, istruzioni non italiano -

This iron was really good but unfortunately has completely stopped working within 8 weeks. 2 weeks ago the retractable cord mechanism stopped working after first press of button.

Exelente
