Works well if you follow instructions

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2022

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

Customer comments made me worry about leakage with this iron, but I have had no problems while using it according to the instructions. The company specifies you should use tap water, empty the water tank after each use and store the iron standing up on its heel, NOT horizontally. Water will drip from the soleplate if you use steam while the iron is not hot enough. To avoid this, stand the iron up on its heel after plugging it in, then wait until the orange thermostat light at the bottom of the handle goes OFF. I didn't see the orange light initially, and I thought the iron was taking a long time to heat up. If you watch the bottom of the handle carefully while the iron is standing, you will see the orange light go on, then off after a minute or two. When you use it as directed, this is a reliable, excellent iron.

Great all around iron

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2020

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

I ordered this iron a little hesitantly, but have found it to be good on all points. The tip of the sole plate is great in small areas, the steam varies from none to huge amounts of steam, depending on settings. Even steams vertically!
The spray and burst of steam work perfectly and there are no buttons to push accidentally. I was hoping it would have a safety shutoff override, but it doesn't. Although I have to say it re-heats quickly and I hardly notice that it was shut off. Saves worry if I may have forgotten to unplug when I leave.

Not ergonomic for arthritic hands

Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2021

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

Good overall iron with large water reservoir and smaller pointed front for detail work.
Round dial to turn to heat level is tough to grab around the large handle, poor ergonomic design especially for those with small hands or weak grip strength. Also, when ironing, the handle is slightly angled down to the front and the two buttons to spray water or burst steam are smooth with the handle so as the hand slides forward on the handle the buttons are pushed without realizing it - "Why does it spray water while I am ironing?" led to this discovery.

Started off great, then died after 4 months

Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2021

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

Nice iron. It was a little difficult to see the water level because the water canister is dark. Also as you slip your hand into the grip, you contact the heat control dial. So as your hand goes in, the wheel automatically is pushed to maximum heat. You have to re-adjust it. What was disappointing was after only 4 months the iron began to leak, a lot. So the clothes you are ironing ended up with big water streaks, then it stopped working entirely. I contacted their authorized repair center and they told me to bring it on it. So, if this turns out to be a good experience, I will upgrade the rating.

Didn't realize how lousy my old iron was!

Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2021

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

When my old iron starting spitting rusty water, I know it was time to replace it. After doing a bit of research, I chose the Rowenta Focus. The features checked all my boxes. It arrived quickly, and I put it to work on some linen tableware. The fact that I can use tap water was a plus, but I did use the R/O water rather than straight tap water. The iron heated fast, feels comfortable in the hand, and has enough weight that the ironing went much more quickly than with my old iron. My only regret is that I did not pay a bit more for a model with a retractable cord. This iron makes quick work of my ironing tasks!

great iron

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2019

Color: BlueVerified Purchase

I am a quilter and iron constantly. With that said, I have purchased many irons, tried out many irons at quilt shows until I finally found this one. It is perfect. It gets hot enough, takes out wrinkles perfectly, is a great steamer, is lightweight, turns off automatically after a certain time- heats back up quickly after not being used for awhile. I'm really happy with this iron - b t w I bought another one for my sister in law. I have even by mistake left it plugged in over night with no issues.
