Very good ironing quality for clothes. But may leak a little some time. They say it is stainless steel soleplate, but it rusted with in 2-3 years. Pic attached. The amount of steam and quantity is uncomparible with any other iron and thus it gives prodessional ironing.

The iron was working fine, nothing we have changed in it, then all of sudden it works but no heat, just the light, and we contacted the seller, said the window of return is only 30 days, it is really frustrating beca You would think that an iron with this price would have a better customer service or at least they would refund us. But no

The iron broke down after less than a month of usage. I complained to the supplier that the item is not working and got no response. Very disappointed

Actually product is as expected. But the main thing is it comes with US plug and you need a converter to use.

I recently purchased this iron that operates on 110V, so I need a power converter to use it here in the UAE, where the standard voltage is 220V.

Just received today, Saturday, October 28, 2017, via Amazon Prime. Arrived very well packaged. I'm a guy that started ironing years ago after I realized that I didn't know how to iron a dress shirt or select heat settings for attire. So... I've gone through a number of irons from different manufacturers. My last iron was a Shark Professional 1500. Not a bad iron in general but I really disliked the water tank in that it was quite challenging to determine exactly how much water remained and... the iron had to be set vertical for filling. Both of these issues were immediately laid to rest with the DW5080. It can be easily filled in the sink under running water... the use of tap water recommended by Rowenta. Additionally, the quite large water tank proved very easy to see water level. I also like the fact that the iron soleplate is stainless rather than non-stick material. I've used non-stick soleplates and learned that I did not like using them over time. Stainless is very easy to keep clean and Rowenta recommends using the self cleaning feature regularly, especially for hard water areas. Rowenta has an excellent set of instructions. Read them. Use them. They are valuable. I've heard comments about the heaviness of the DW5080. My former Shark 1500 and my current Rowenta DW5080 both weigh almost the same... 3 1/2 lbs dry... cord and all. The Rowenta, however, is a bit larger both in width and length and this translates into a bit more iron to control, but not in a bad way for me at all. Regarding the handle. I am right handed and the length of my hand from the back of my palm to the end of my middle finger is between 7 1/2 and 8 inches. I immediately noticed that with the Rowenta, my knuckles were not bumping into the temperature control like they always did on the Shark. Very nice unexpected feature. Regarding the temperature control. It is detented... meaning that it has lots of micro clicks. I like this feature so very much more than temperature controls that don't use detents. It feels much more positive to me... but's that's just my opinion. Regarding heat up time. After filling the water tank, setting the temperature control, and plugging the DW5080 in, I walked to the closet, in the same room that I was ironing, grabbed three pair of khakis and a shirt, and returned to the ironing board. I placed the first pair of khakis on the board and when I picked the iron up and presented it horizontally, I found that the thermostat indicator light had already gone out indicating that the iron was already at temperature and ready to go. Placing the iron horizontally resulted in immediate steam from what appeared to be all of those 400 holes in the soleplate. Regarding water consumption. I've read some reviews where users had complained about how much water the DW5080 goes through. Wanting to find out, I laid out three pair of heavily wrinkled men's cotton khakis and one men's cotton short sleeved button down. I really like the DW5080's steam generation. Much much more than the Shark... but remember... the Shark was a 1500 watt compared to the Rowenta 1700 watts... so it's not really fair to suggest that the Shark does not generate steam... perhaps a 1700 watt Shark might do the same thing... I just don't know. Regarding water consumption, I set the DW5080 to it's hottest temperature (hotter than suggested for cotton) and fullest steam potential setting. Doing so, I was able to completely and iron two full pairs of the khaki pants, and about half way through the third pair of khakis that the level of steam began declining. The DW5080 has a scaled water tank with 50 gradations and organized by ounces... a larger marking at every two ounces. Therefore, setting the iron vertical, I was able to determine that I had used a bit between 8 and 9 ounces of water for this session. My take away, I should be able to quite easily iron a pair of pants, long-sleeved button down shirt, tie, and jacket... without refilling. There's even a chance that a person could iron their boxer shorts as well in the same session if they so desired. Conclusion after first use. The Rowenta DW5080 is a wonderful product. It's easy for me to see how much water is in the graduated tank. The handle is very comfortable for me and my knuckles don't bump the temperature control. I read a review about the polished solid stainless steel soleplate and how it glided. I found that to be literally true. The iron on first use literally glided across everything I set it on. The level of steam literally eliminated every wrinkle that was presented to it. Would I recommend this to a friend? Most definitely. I want to return to this entry a year from now to write how it's still doing at that time.

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'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 am a fan of Rowenta steam irons. My last one only gave out because I stored it improperly-- with water in the tank, which caused a fitting to rust. That happened over the course of the 20 years I owned the Titan Plus Professional DE92.1, and I'll be sure to drain unused water from the tank of this new one now on. Shape of the Focus iron allows for easy access around buttons and tight corners; lots of steam, good weight but not too heavy, reaches operating temperature quickly. I have not had problems inadvertently moving setting dial or with draining water chamber, as some others have posted. What has happened is I have repositioned my grip on the handle and accidentally depressed the steam or spray levers. This shouldn't continue to be an issue after I become used to using this model; my previous iron had actual buttons to push with my thumb so my hand couldn't slide forward. No big deal. Great product. Highly recommend. So far, no problems with leaking.
