Rowenta Steam Force Stainless Steel Soleplate Steam Iron for Clothes 400 Microsteam Holes 1800 Watts Ironing, Fabric Steamer, Garment Steamer, Digital Display, Precision Tip DW9440

Probably the best iron on the market . I love cotton bedding but it is fiendishly hard to get the creases out , this iron smooth glides over cotton and really gets deep creases out . Marvellous. I also like a heavy iron in my hand , if you are elderly , maybe this iron would be a bit sturdy for you , I know my elderly mother would say it is too heavy for her , especially if you are doing a marathon family iron . I love it and give it 5* .

Should not be on sale in the United Kingdom. May be Amazon should be prosecuted for selling something unfit for use in the UK.

Disappointed with plug

This is a good iron but came with a USA plug which was not on the description so annoying I couldn’t use it straight away and had to order plug adapter. The other thing is it gets a lot hotter than other irons which is good in some ways but not so good sometimes if it burns fabrics and you have to clean the base more often than usual. However, the worst is that just a few days before the year is up, it has just suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason and we can’t see why. I want a refund but there is no way to request one as it says the return window closed 23rd April! No good and I see other reviewers say their Rowenta irons didn’t last long either. This is very bad. Can anyone tell me how to complain to Amazon?

This iron has made a crackling noise from new . It has now stopped warming up and has exploded while I was ironing nevervreally trusted it

Clear instructions were not there that we can use in UK. Since the plug 🔌 is different from UK . Tried with compatible adapter, works for 10 -15 mins and goes off looking for the right cable for UK it would be great if the seller can suggest.

I was disappointed with this iron paid a lot money it only as a 2 pin plug and can't understand the information wouldn't recommend

So this is a nice looking iron this particular iron I feel should not be sold in the UK it's only 120 volt ( 240v Uk ) with the two core wire unlike the UK which is 3 core one being an earth with a three-pin plug not a two pin plug as this iron has. if somone changed the plug to a uk it would more tha likey fry the iron may even catch fire. i t doesn't tell you anywhere on the description that this is for the us market only should not be used in the UK. i am in contact with Rowenta to find out more and if the iron could be used in the uk < I believe that the answer is going to be no I will have to send this back so disappointed

Iron became faulty just 3 months after purchase with very minimal usage. Repair centre said this voltage is not meant for SG usage and can’t repair. Waiting for seller to get back on a solution to repair the iron.

Excellent iron. Great amount of steam. Heats up fast. Make sure that you run the iron on the ironing board for when starting to iron after it heats up as the excess steam at the start may burn/stain your outfit. Once this is done, the iron is brilliant.

I have been use this brand for long time. I recommend it.

I'm a quilter by hobby so picking out an iron is a very important thing. This is my second Rowenta Iron - the only reason I had to choose a new one was the old one I kept dropping (always my fault for banging into the ironing board to have everything fall over) anyway, it went through 4 years of hard falls before the casing finally cracked. If you knew how many times I tipped over the ironing board, you would be impressed with that. So I finally got smart, moved the ironing board (and furniture) so I can no longer tip it over. This new iron is more impressive, does a much better job of ironing and makes for a smooth maneuver over the material. The only "thing" I can find fault for, is that the steam (water in the tank) does not last long due to that at the beginning it over steams the material and is using up the water faster. Not sure if there is a way to control that at the beginning to make it last longer. Now that I've got it (my ironing board and iron) in a safer place, I expect that this will last me for years. Thank you for developing a sturdy, safe and long lasting iron!

I read many reviews on this iron and I think they have upgraded this model. First, the temperature dial is not that easy to move so brushing your hand on it when picking it up will not move the dial. My iron did not leak at all. I filled it to the MAX level and turned it on. It did not leak before it heated up or while it was hot. I even put the iron horizontal and there was no leaking. The steam function worked fine. The instructions were very informative with pictures. The wool setting of two dots (eco) will not steam unless the steam setting switch is also on eco. Then a smaller amount of steam is produced. It says that in the instructions. The auto off is on when the auto off red light on top of the handle is flashing. When that red light is not flashing the auto off feature is not on and the iron is working on the setting you have it on. To reactivate the iron from being off you just move the iron horizontally back and forth a couple times and it comes back on. The light that is very hard to find and see is the "Pilot" light. The one that tells you the iron is heating up. It is located on the left side bottom of the handle and it is sort of back under the center of the iron and it is a very faint orange. In order to see it you have to look for it and tip the iron a bit to see it. It is on only when the iron is heating up. The instructions say not to iron until that light goes off. This iron's spray and burst buttons worked fine. This iron steam presses very nicely on a flat wool ironing pad. I have not tried the vertical steaming because I don't have any clothes or items to vertically press. I sew and quilt and I use an iron for my sewing projects. So I use the highest cotton setting when I iron and this does great on that setting. It does glide over fabrics very well. I did not time the time it took to heat up. But I would guess it got to the cotton setting in a minute or two. It is an expensive iron but it has a lot of nice features like how the cord is attached to the iron on a pivoting ball to help the cord stay out of the way. The cord is about 7.5 feet long. The iron is not too heavy and not too light. It does have the calcium cleaner on it for easy cleaning of the iron. It pressed serious creases in fabric that was folded many times so it was 12 layers of fabric. Ironed it flat with the cotton setting and burst of steam. So far I like this iron. :)
