Rowenta DX9301

The Rowenta DX9301 tells you when temperature is right for your type of material (green, red, yellow light system). However, after about 2 years of rather sparse use, it has now stopped working. I would concur with a previous reviewer that the jet of steam that comes out of it when held vertically is quite dangerous.

We are now having to get a new iron, and it will not be the same.

Fantastic iron, along as it works. Returned my first Rowenta DX9301 back to the store as it didn't heat up. This one is now over 1 year old and it gave out on me the other day, thanks goodness I had a spare. Water had been runnning out for some time now, which it promised it wouldn't do. Steam facility is great but don't let anyone stand to close when sitting the iron down as the jet of steam is very powerful and dangerous. It was quite expensive so disappointed that I only had 1 year from it. The best of it is that I purchased a 3 year warranty with it and now it has gone AWOL.

I contacted Rowenta who were very apologetic, and offered to collect the iron and return it when fixed. It was also stated, that if there were a lack of spares, this could take some time. So now I am left with the option of buying another iron, to fill in for this one, whilst away for repair. For a product that is not cheap in the first place, this is my recommendation - buy from another maker. Half the price, and twice the product.
