I have always owned Rowena irons. And yes I still iron everything. My old one was ready for replacement and I got the 1700W max. I need a screwdriver to pry open the water inlet cap, you cannot see how much water you have in it, it leaves water spots on my clothing while ironing and the steam isn't great. I have reread the instruction several times and can't fix the water spots. So disappointed in this Rowena iron. Never had so many issues. Check out all the reviews before you buy this model.
