Rowenta KA900 Universo

Advantages: Brand reputation, AirGlide soleplate
Disadvantages: Absolutely none

...The Rowenta DM520 has got to be simply the best iron that I have ever owned. I paid £49.99 for it out of Curry’s a few months back, a little pricey you might say, but I can honestly admit, it is worth every single penny. This is the second Rowenta iron I’ve owned. The first lasted for 9½ years, and I’m positive would still be working today, if I my sister hadn’t knocked it off the ironing board onto the ceramic tiles on the kitchen floor. (However, I’ll give her credit where credit is due, she did buy me a replacement). However, it wasn’t a Rowenta, and it blew up after 2 months. But anyway, the thought was there, and I hate bearing grudges. Before I bought it, I did my research and checked prices etc, but I came to the conclusion that I’m better sticking to a brand that I’ve used... Read review

Advantages: LOTS
Disadvantages: none

...Fed up with your old iron? Is it deprived of the latest state of the art looks? If it is then this is the ultimate iron for you. Befor ironing was a huge chore for me, but now it is my highlight of my day as I feel the iron sliding smoothly over my clothes like a swan gliding across a lake. My friends all ask, "How do you make your clothes so beautiful?" and I reply, "My Rowenta DM825 Professional Luxe Steam Iron is the secret". At my home I have iron parties and my friends and I demonsrate our irons and people have confessed to me that they crave my appliance in sleepless nights. My husband excells in extreme ironing, the reason: Rowenta! I hope this review helps to improve your life too!... Read review

Advantages: Good glide, large water tank
Disadvantages: None

...Having killed my last iron (I managed to melt a fleece onto the soleplate!), it was time for an upgrade. My previous iron was also a Rowenta, a model down from this one. I had always been happy with the brand, so I decided to go for the DM825. My decision was helped by a recommendation by Which Extra in their best buy guide. The DM825 Professional Luxe Steam Iron (to use its full name), is a very good all round iron. It looks modern and attractive (I've had it about 5 months now and it still looks brand new). It's not too heavy and glides really well, which is a definite advantage as I now get the ironing finished much quicker than before, and I can honestly say the results are very good. All the buttons are easy to use and it does seem to warm up to just the right temperature on each setting. The temperature 'wheel' is just... Read review
