Rowenta.....what?
»
Owned a Rowenta, loved it, but dropped it and had to buy a replacement iron. Saw the Black and Decker iron thought I would give it a try because it was a lot cheaper than the Rowenta.....not expecting anything but a normal iron........Hello!! It stands side by side with the Rowenta I had.....will not buy anything but a Black and Decker iron. Wonderful product and at least half the cost. Bravo! Thank you Black and Decker!!!

We Have a Winner!
»
I have had a high end Sears iron, a lesser B&D, a really cheap Sunbeam, one that was mid-priced and so bad I gave it away to a rummage sale in the original box a week later. I also tried out a Rowena for a couple of day's that belonged to family member. The Sears and the lesser B&D just stopped heating within a year.
The first iron I bought was the cheep sunbeam that had great steam and a metal sole plate with a non stick surface the worked good, the trouble was it shut off every 15 min. no matter what you did and if you weren't paying any attention it dumped water all over the garment, but I would tell myself "Hey for 14.95 not a bad iron."
The next was the Sears and it had too little steam and the sole plate was stainless steal that would muck up with, who knows what, and I was cleaning it every two weeks. I had to scratch the surface to get the crud off. It then stopped heating 3 months later. No receit...a loss.
The lesser B@D had great steam, but the same problem with the sole plate. I believe, either the grade of stainless steal. or the fact that both irons (Sears and the lesser B&D) had low points on the sole plate making a spot for the crud to stay in was the reason for this. At any rate it died 4 months later... Another loss.
The one I gave away had more problems than I can list, and I was not impressed with the Rowena let alone at the price.
So I did more research and found this B&D model D2320. It does everything great and I have no complaints. The steam is as good as I have seen on a hand held iron. The sole plate, after 2 months is as clean as when I bought it (I could shave in it if I shaved, :). It only tuns off when not moved and turns off quickly if left on it's sole. I like this arrangement. Cord is real long and it holds a lot of water. If it dies in the first year, as many irons do including Rowena's, according to my research. I have a plan this time. I have taken all information and put it in the original box with info on my registering the iron so I can send it back.
If it keeps working it is all the iron I want.

Wonderful iron

I got this iron based on reviews I read, and have not been one bit disappointed. I like the weight and the controls. The steam is perfect.

Very Nice Iron!

This iron works well. It warms up quick and I have not had a issue with it dripping. The only complaint that I can see someone having is that it is a little heavy but other than that, this is a great iron.

The Hottest Iron Around
»
I never LOVED an iron before but I can honestly say that I LOVE this iron. It gets hot fast and I only have to go over each item once! It isn't light weight but it isn't cumbersome heavy either. The digital aspect took me a minute or two to catch onto but now I'm an old pro at it. I love the little water container that comes with the iron. It is shaped perfectly and does the job of getting the water into the reservoir. I wouldn't hesitate for one second to purchase this iron.
