The PERFECT Ironing Solution for Garment Pressing Perfectionists

Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2016

Style: XL Water TankColor: PurpleVerified Purchase

First, a disclosure of sorts. Unlike many people, ironing is not a chore for me, it is a recreational hobby, practically a passion. And I rarely write reviews for anything, but this appliance deserves 10 stars if I could give it. I've been ironing for myself and my family for about 40 years and I've worked with a lot of irons but this appliance is in a world of its own awesome power and effectiveness. I've been a loyal user of Rowenta products for years but recently I have been disappointed time and time again with the hand-held irons, even those from Rowenta, because they leak from the steam chamber no matter how carefully the iron is handled and moved about on the garment. I've returned at least two and my most recent one, which I also purchased from Amazon, leaks as well, but I had resigned myself to it. Not anymore! I set this new appliance a couple of ironing tasks to test it out. First, I pressed flannel and it came out perfectly. The steam is so powerful and plentiful (I ironed for a full hour with no refilling the chamber, which is amazing and saves loads of time and effort, and that wasn't even at full water capacity) that you don't have to press on fabrics that will show ironing marks, such as flannel will, to get an amazing set of creases and elimination of all wrinkles. Next I pressed a "no-iron" shirt. In my opinion, and yes, I am opinionated so no need to point it out, there is absolutely no such thing as a "no-iron" 100% cotton, or 50/50 cotton/poly (but who wears those anymore?) dress shirt. People claim you can take them out of the dryer, hang them, and they look ironed and I call BS on that. If nothing else the sleeves won't be creased properly. Anyway, this "no iron" shirt has ironing instructions, so if that isn't irony I don't know what is. The Steam Station handled this shirt with ease in record time. I moved on to a very light weight cotton shirt that tends to wad up on the tails when washed and it wrinkles if you look at it cross-eyed. This took a bit more effort, as I expected, but the power of the steam took care of even the most stubborn of the set in wrinkles in record time. I couldn't have been more pleased. Next I tackled a pair of canvas pants. Heavy duty canvas. I reversed the pants and started with the back pockets, which cannot be lifted and ironed separately, which is of course how it should be done if you are properly ironing, so I had to rely on the steam power alone to penetrate two layers of canvas. Flawless! Even the pocket flaps, which would amount to 4 layers of canvas, were wrinkle free without having to reverse the pant and iron on the front of the fabric. On the legs it was not necessary to iron both sides, even though I did just for fun, as the steam was more than powerful enough to press through both layers. Those canvas trousers have not looked this good since they were new. Finally, I reversed the pants right-side out to set the crease, and I could accomplish this without having to actually touch the fabric, using just steam alone, THROUGH ALL FOUR LAYERS of canvas. This is important because it means that on dark fabrics that would otherwise show iron marks, I can dispense with using an ironing cloth to protect the fabric because the plate doesn't actually have to touch to set the crease. I repeated the performance with a pair of navy blue knit trousers that would normally require an ironing cloth to set the seam, but one was not needed with the incredible amount of steam coming out of this thing at great pressure. I also tested removing small wrinkles that managed to find their way onto fabrics as they were moved about the ironing board by using the upright steam function while holding the garment firmly to stretch out the fabric hanging on a hanger. Excellent results. There is simply no way that a hand held steam iron could produce this volume and power of steam, and the basic physics of ironing require that cotton fibers be damp to be reset and release wrinkles, so the steam power is essential. This is why, long ago, we used Coke bottles with aluminium sprinkler caps on them to dampen cotton garments before ironing them. Does anyone else remember those? The hand unit is very light weight and easily to manipulate. In terms of size, sure, the unit is bigger than a hand held iron, but it fit perfectly on the right hand end of my standard ironing board, nothing fancy about it, and even size 32 length pant fit on the board with the unit in place with no crowding. And, both the power and steam cords are long enough that you could easily set the unit on a nearby table or counter if your ironing board was a bit small. Yes, this appliance is expensive, but I paid approximately $150 for my last hand held only to have leak problems, so it is worth it if you are serious about ironing. One caution, and it is only because the device works so well, is to be very mindful of where your hand is while holding garments in place before pressing that steam button because the steam is high volume and high pressure. You could get burned easily if not careful, but common sense should prevail here. Also, the steam delivery cord will heat up during use as it delivers steam, but it isn't hot enough to burn you; you will feel it when it touches you. I was having such a good time that I even ironed 3 t-shirts just for the fun of it. Honestly, I wish I had more clothes that needed ironing and the only reason I am not taking previously pressed items out of the closet to redo them is because I have guests coming over. For a person as picky about ironing results as I self-admittedly am, as in I don't take my shirts to the dry cleaners because they don't do an adequate job of pressing, this steam iron station is a dream come true. It performed flawlessly true to description and I couldn't be happier. If you do a lot of ironing, or even if you do a small amount but believe that something worth doing is worth doing correctly and well, then this is hands-down without question the best ironing solution for you.

Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2016

Style: XL Water TankColor: PurpleVerified Purchase

(Please look down to skip to the actual review.)

Recently, While in the UK staying with some friends I had the joy of using one of these types of irons, it was the T-Fal version. I was immediately impressed! I was able to iron all seven outfits I had shrink wrapped for the trip in a matter of a mere hour or so and not to mention it was a very crisp professional press. In my mind at that moment I knew I couldn’t go back to having a regular iron again.

I offered to iron every ones clothes. It was actually fun and relaxing to hear the constant “haaaw” and “shish” of the iron and I press out even the most stubborn wrinkle with ease. The mistress of the house made smart remarks and tried to make it seem like I had a problem or something because I liked ironing so much. But my friend who also happened to be a gadget guy; like myself. He got it. He even gave me a run down of the iron and how he himself had tried one and fell in love with it and thus he also had to make the purchase. He paid around 300 pounds, which at the time had to be around 600 or so US dollars. It was around that moments my dream of having one evaporated like the steam, “hiiissssssss”.

See I am not the wealthiest person alive, we saved up for the trip from the US to see my wife’s sister graduate in the UK for a about a year, so a 600 dollar or even a 500 dollar iron was completely out of the question. Did I mention I’m married with kids….yeah.. So, no money to spare.
Anyway to the Rowenta
So the day comes when I have to depart, I woke up early and used the iron one last time to iron everyone’s clothes, and underwear….and socks. I just didn’t want the experience to end knowing that I would probably never again feel that type of power in my hands. I remembered comparing it to the feeling one might get when switching to their first luxury car and realizing “ wow this truly is a whole new level of car, how can I ever go back to a regular car?”
Returning to the states was depressing.
I filled my regular iron up with water and was immediately disappointed.
I had to hold the iron under the tap at “just the right angle” and if I tried to fill it up too fast then the darned bubble would form and knock the water away from the hole like it was protecting something.
The iron hissed but it was so weak, like an old man trying to box and show he’s still got it.
And of course I got that “oh you were too fast” water stain, when I put it on my clothes thinking it was ready.
So I lived in this mediocrity for weeks dreading the task of ironing. Dreading the “morning hustle” or the weekend “get ready”. But my birthday was around the corner and my wife apparently has found the iron online for under 300 dollars so little did I know that my life was about to change.
A bit before my Birthday I got a text from AMAZON stating that the Rowneta DG8520 had been delivered along with a picture of the iron. “NO…she..didn’t” I said in my head. I was elated! I was at work in my “shared space” cubicle and yelled out loud.
But the iron was 4 days early and she would not let me have it, even though I knew about it. She said that Amazon had made I mistake to send me that text but that she would not let me use the iron until my Birthday.
This was the most horrible punishment that one can do to a man. Make him wait whilst his salvation it but a room away in an Amazon box.
For 4 days I continued to iron, the regular way.
By the 4th day I couldn’t take it as I got up that morning I did not have the energy to carry on but I continued with the knowledge that soon; soon it would all be over.

On my Birthday I was up at the crack of dawn with Amazon box in hand
I tore through the box with all the malice a man forced to wait for 4 days could must… finally the dream was real
I couldn’t wait to try it out.

It was better than expected.

This iron actually beats the T-Fal model I was using in most all ways, expect one which I will explain latter.

THE REVIEW

The Rowenta is a nice looking piece of equipment.
The bulky yet sturdy base gives it the look of a true household appliance.
All of the parts and pieces are high quality and well made.
The water container is sturdy and smart ,clipping on and off with ease, yet staying put when transported.
The mesh steam-cord is a nice touch and seems standard yet sturdy and definitely long enough for you to leave the unit in one place (say bathroom sink or on the washing machine) and have the ironing happening near by. You could also just put the unit on the ground under the iron and have plenty of cord to iron depending on your size of course. If having the base on the ironing board is more your style then this is easily accomplished as well.

The one gripe I have is the power cord. It does not retract and just sticks out there with no real winding mechanism; maybe that is why it is not in the photo. That one picture which may appear to be the retractable cord is actually a scoop that’s used to clean hard water. The T-Fal had a little cubby at least to tuck away the cord. Oh well , maybe that’s where the other 200 dollar went. ;-)

It works well though, even better than the T-Fal. This irons steam level is awesome and constant.
Immediately I tested out several pairs of pants that I had not worn in quite some time due to the difficulty I had ironing them and the Rowenta ironed them like they were T-Shirts.
You can even iron the very top of your pants with impressive ease, even the belt loops and zipper area are no match.
I ironed a velvet smokers jacket while I was on the way out the house, while it was still on my body and it got every wrinkle out (of course I ironed mostly from the inside with the iron /steam pointed away from me even then the steam quickly fogged up my whole situation) there is a tremendous amount of steam they did good here.
And while I would not recommend ironing clothes while they are on you I have ironed a couple of my wife’s shirt as she walked up to me while I was ironing by simply pointing the iron at her and pressing the steam button.

This iron could iron your King-size bed in 2 minutes because it produces so much heat and steam. That’s how real this iron is , I did it.

If you are one who appreciates the simple yet finer things in life and like to spend your time wisely I suggest you get one of these.

Thanks to INCREDIBLELISTINGS store.

Reviewed in Canada on January 3, 2018

Style: XL Water TankColor: BlueVerified Purchase

I got this steam station after seeing the amazing price at INCREDIBLE LISTINGS on Amazon.ca. I did a bit of research on what the consumers said about the product and I was thrilled. I have no regrets whatsoever. I always wanted a serious iron but never opted for a system like this. So here is my review. I have other Rowenta products such and upright steamer and a travel steamer/iron. I am very pleased with both so the outcome of the quality of this item was not something that I questioned.
When I received the item I was SUPER IMPRESSED that I got such a good deal for such quality item. Surely enough I put this baby to the test. I began with silk items which normally I find on cheaper irons with an all stainless steel plate tend to get dirty very easily. Not this machine! It glided well and the steam that it emits is very powerful and any creases vanish in seconds. You do not have to redo anything once it warms up this iron system delivers as a professionally ironed garment at the cleaners. Then I did sheets and here it delivered as well. I have not done anything heavy such as jeans yet but I plan to do so in the coming days which I will post. So far I have not checked the wattage for this machine but other reviewers said it was 1800 so it is heavy duty. It does have an ECO button which Rowenta says saves 20% of the energy. It is quiet portable and the iron locks onto the base from the front and back. The electrical cord unlike other more advanced models does NOT retract but has to be rolled up. I wish this iron came in a case. That would have been a plus for storage but that does not affect its performance. I have a home distiller which is a great thing to have when one needs to iron a large amount of garments. Story Short I am very impressed by this Item and totally thankful to INCREDBLE LISTINGS for having made it available at such a great price. Will certainly recommend it to anyone who wants some serious ironing system that delivers.

A great product for anyone looking for a fast, high-quality ironing job (and willing to pay a little extra for it)

Reviewed in Canada on December 19, 2016

Style: XL Water TankColor: BlueVerified Purchase

Very pleased with this iron. It's expensive, large, and heavy, but it works like a dream. Cuts down the time needed to iron a shirt by more than half, which was one of the main reasons that I bought this iron. Easily gets rid of wrinkles and leaves shirts looking professionally pressed, which was the second of the main reasons that I bought it. I've only had the iron for a few days, and haven't experienced any possible quality concerns.

The base plate is high quality with a huge number of holes for the steam. Lacking a water reservoir on the iron, it is lighter than a regular iron, but still has a good weight and a solid feel.

I was looking for a quality machine that left my clothes looking better and being finished faster than with a regular, sub-$100 steam iron, and I was not disappointed.

Never worked properly from the time I took it out of the box.

Reviewed in Canada on May 20, 2021

Style: XL Water TankColor: PurpleVerified Purchase

I purchased this steam iron to replace a vintage seamstress steam iron that I had. I sew a lot, I need a good steam iron. This one was a huge disappointment. I thought it was me that was doing something wrong. I tried everything to get it to work. I even use distilled water. I love the large tank, because you don't have to keep adding water, but I don't have to refill it anyway, because the steam never works. To top it all off, the iron itself is not that hot, so it doesn't work well even if I use spray starch. It's my own fault for not taking the initiative to return it, but I honestly hadn't set it up for a while because I was still able to use my conventional iron (which actually works so much better!) I'm now stuck with this expensive piece of useless junk, and out over $250! After reading so many similar complaints, I now know it's not me that is doing anything wrong, and it really should work better than it does for the cost.

I would highly recommend this steam iron. Rowenta is a fantastic brand. I replaced my previous Rowenta of over 10 years with this newer model and it has proven it's supior steaming abilities just like my first one once had if not even better. Love the new look and the easy water holding area so you cant over fill! Well worth the price! This review is coming from a seamstress wirh 19+ years of experience with irons.
