My New Baby



Yep, it's a Rowenta..... my very first one. Usually I buy the cheapest iron I can find because they usually wear out so quickly, but this little baby came highly recommended by one of my girlfriends. So, of course I couldn't resist. So far, so good. It's gets as hot as I need, it doesn't shut off (quilters really don't like it when their irons shut off) and it's light weight..... Love it!!!!

    So do I love it too! Lots of ironing in quilting and embroidering to come! Long live your Rowenta!

    (this brand isn´t sold in Brazil, but, by the way you´ve put it, I suppose it must be a reknown one)

    Let´s see how well and how long it works! Tell us all!

    It looks beautiful. I can't wait to read a review in about 6 months. I go through mine so quickly too. It's a love affair at first that quickly turns.

    ^^^ Yes yes yes to what Needled Mom said - I'm ever so curious to see how well it stands up in the long term! My son bought me a $100 iron a few years ago as a gift, and I got exactly one year out of it. That's crappy! I too hate auto off because it always goes off at the most inopportune time - we should at least be able to set the time according to what works best for US - my current one shuts off in about 10 minutes - ARGH!

    We don't get that brand here, but I have heard they are very popular in the US. I hate it when the iron beeps at me and shuts off too!!!!

    That is a very modern looking iron. I am going to find one and try it.
    I bought a Shark iron one year ago and yesterday it stopped working, just like that, stopped! I have never dropped it or anything.
    I DO NOT like automatic shut off either. I do not like teflon sole plate. So this iron sounds like it will work for me. For longer than a YEAR , I hope!
