steaming (2007-08-14) Two years ago my 20 odd year old Rowenta steam iron gave in. Obviously not built to last ! Since then I have been trying to find a steam iron just as good and have failed miserably until now. I have been through 6 irons in two years so you will appreciate my joy when this product arrived today and I used it for the first time. Easy to set up, use and irons like a dream. Constant flow of steam if required which tackled my most difficuly items with ease. Although the iron itself is light, the steam flow more than compensates with a terrific finish. Hope it continues as long as the old one. Oh, and it is red and white, the colours of my favourite football team of 50 years, Sheffield United, so all in all a good days work.
