Favorite iron? Eurosteam, Rowenta, or other brand?

I've been thinking about buying an iron. The Eurosteam demos look impressive, but the reviews on QVC's website aren't very good. My mom likes her Rowenta. Which brand/model do you recommend? Thanks!

Never tried eurostesm - love my Rowenta.

Definitely Rowenta - I wouldn't use anything else. Yeeears ago - my first Rowenta - I didn't like it because it was so heavy. When it conked out I went back to Sunbeam and hated it. I do a ton of ironing. The heaviness of the Rowenta makes you press down less - less work for us.

Rowenta here, too. I'd get one of the 'Made in Germany' models. I think sometimes QVC has 'Made in China' models too, but I'd go with the other ones.

I have a Rowenta iron, and a steam generator for the big jobs.

I just go for the basics ... a Black & Decker steam iron I bought in 1990. I think I paid $10 for it.

Prior to that, I had a GE for about 25 years. They all do the same thing ... get the wrinkles out of my clothes.

Thanks for taking the time to respond! Nutmeg3, I've never seen a Rowenta steam generator. That's impressive!

I have a Rowenta. What's different about it from the regular box store brands, is the steam. I steam everything. I don't like to iron. It's true what they say about liking to iron after using it. I don't know that I'd get to the point of loving it, but I like ironing alot more than I did.
