At first I wasn't sure that I would like my new iron. It has a lot of bells and whistles that my old Rowenta did not have, but after I took the trouble to carefully read and follow the directions I began to like the new features. It puts out an amazing amount of steam. It is a heavy iron so it does the job quite quickly without requiring the ironer to go over the fabric more than once as is needed with a light iron. The digital display window is very helpful and let's you know when the iron is at the proper temperature for the selected fabric. There is only one thing that I would change and that is that the viewing window for the water level is dark blue and this makes it difficult to see how much water is left in the tank. I like this iron. It is well made, doesn't leak and does the job quickly and efficiently.
