 Tank leaking water July 8, 2008
We ordered this in May and by July the tank was leaking water when the iron is in the upright position. We're sending it to the NY service center and will update the review once we hear back from them.
 Love it! June 30, 2008

Aside from the fact that the setting dial is easily rotated during usage which has caused one or two close calls/minor melting of certain fabrics, I love this iron. My favorite part about the iron is the shape of the tip. It tapers and is more slender than most of my previous irons which allows ironing between pockets, creases, buttons and any other small or awkward area with ease. My old cheaper iron was heavier and spit up left and right. I haven't had problems with this one in terms of spitting up. The fact that it is a Rowenta and was less than $100 are just the icing on the cake!

After purchasing 3 expensiveish irons and hating them - leakyness, breaking waaaay too easy, not working... I finally splurged and purchased this iron.
Holy cow. This is the most amazing iron I have ever used. I almost like to iron with it. But - the steam will burn you if you aren't carefull, and it is really light so I now have a burn on my inner forearm from tilting it in while not paying attention... Worth it though for the amazingness of the iron.
Great Iron June 7, 2008
After using GE, Shark and Black & Decker, I moved over to Rowenta Focus DZ5080.
This is a great iron. The 400 tiny holes for steam in the soleplate does do a very good job. It is a light iron and easy to use and control. Most ergonomic iron I have ever used.
The Black & Decker Iron I used was also good but it was heavy when filled with water.
 WAS great, then the LEAKING began! June 2, 2008

My husband and I loved this iron- the design, the numerous steam holes, the way it glided over fabrics- and then, the LEAKING began. Profuse leaking. It started after approximately one year- we would find huge puddles of water under the iron on our counter where we left it over night. It would spill puddles on to clothing after a few minutes of use. Please, understand: we did NOT overfill it with water, and we did NOT put in distilled water, either. We followed all instructions exactly, including cleaning the iron out to be sure there was no blockage- the iron just started malfunctioning. Thankfully, we purchased it from Bed Bath and Beyond- they ALWAYS accept returns on defective merchandise with your receipt (I kept ours!). I would probably NOT buy this particular brand again.
