Отзывы о Выпрямитель Rowenta SF 8210F0

This is my 3rd Rowenta iron and the worst iron I’ve ever had. My first Rowenta lasted 3 maybe 4 years, the 2nd was also a work horse. I iron something daily, I’m a quilter and my husband a I both wear uniforms that have to be ironed. This iron was spitting brown water within the first month of use so we stopped using the steam function and started misting our clothes with a spray bottle. And yes! I take care of my irons never leaving water to stand in them. This iron will turn off randomly while using it and to get it to reheat you have to unplug and replug. Absolutely the worst iron I have ever owned, the 15.00 shark iron I purchased as a backup is a better iron than this one. I trusted the Rowenta brand and tossed the box the day I opened it or I would have returned the iron. I would like another quality iron but not extremely trusting the Rowenta brand right now.

I AM EXTREMELY UNHAPPY WITH THIS EXPENSIVE STEAM IRON. I was tired of buying cheap irons that lasted maybe a year before they started leaking all over my clothes. I researched, (don't have a lot of time to do this) and found the Rowenta Iron, was supposed to be the Cadillac of irons and I would love it! NOT!! Darn thing started leaking the first time I used it. Leaked from the plate as well as the spray nozzle. Put up with it for about a month when I blew a gasket when it stained a very expensive shirt. Called Amazon, (I purchased the insurance for electrical products) and was told to call Rowenta, it was still under warranty. Did that, they sent a mailing label, (took 2.5 wks) sent the iron back for repairs. Got it back, over a month later. Ahh, finally an iron that does not leak! NOT!! Called Rowenta, I was told that the directions of half tap and half distilled was wrong, needed to use tap only. (got my directions directly from the instruction pamphlet) I asked why I should only use tap water. Rowenta's rep told me, "DISTILLED WATER DOES NOT STEAM!" REALLY??? SINCE WHEN?? They sent me another mailing label, took less time, sent it back and got it back within the month. Still LEAKS! They refused to give me a new iron. They keep on putting new parts on this one. I will not be using it, going to take it to the garage next week and get a sledgehammer and take care of business. I will go back to Target and buy the $30 Sunbeam that I know will leak in about 9 months, but........I have a WHOLE 9 months of clothes that are not getting wet and or stained! Don't waste your money on this iron. IT IS NOT WORTH IT. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKS. I HAVE NOTHING GOOD AT ALL TO SAY ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE. THE FEELING I GOT WHEN I CALLED, THEY JUST DON'T CARE, AT ALL. NADA. I was really hoping for a good iron. Really let down, from the iron to the customer service. I am also upset with Amazon because when I first called I could have returned the product, but they told me I had to call Rowenta because of the warranty. Pretty slick there! What happened to making sure the client is happy? Customer service? Both Rowenta and Amazon, as far as I feel, had a chance to do the right thing, refund my money or give me a new iron. After reading all the other reports about leaking irons, it appears Rowenta has quite a problem with leaking irons. I guess they would have a serious income problem if they actually started doing the right thing. This iron is CRAP!

I think this is my last rowenta. I have been buying them since I was a self-reliant adult (about 25 years). However, the lifespan has shortened with each consecutive model I bought. My first lasted a solid 10 years. My second lasted about 7 year. The next was 5 years, then only 3 years, and my most recent model started having problems in only 3 months. I have been waiting weeks for the reapaired device to be returned but in the meantime I am iron-less. I will seriously look at other brands in the future.

I have only owned Rowenta irons in the last 15 years or so. I bought this one to replace the same model that I had for years. The other one didn't really have any problems, but I do like to switch out irons after a couple of years.

I almost went with a different brand due to all the reviews about leaking. Well, I got my new Rowenta, and saw there was leaking right away. I had filled the iron with water and started pressing the steam button when I noticed the problem. After doing my own troubleshooting, I realized that the iron arrives with the steam function knob turned off (which makes sense). I turned the knob from no steam to full steam, and voila--the leaking stopped and the steam started working full force. It does make sense that if you are pressing the steam button, but the steam knob is set to off that something like a leak would happen. Happy that I went ahead and got this iron again and figured out the issue on my own. (By the way, it is not to say that one could not end up with a lemon that just doesn't work.)

This has been the worst Iron I have ever owned. It has constantly leaked, both hot and cold. It stops heating while ironing after an hour or two use. I am a quilter and need an iron that is dependable, not temperamental. I took care of the iron as instructed in the handbook. Did all that the Rowenta customer service recommended. I am deeply disappointed as this was not a cheap iron. My previous irons lasted 10 to 15 years. Not this one.

If you are a single person and looking to save time don't think twice and buy this with your eyes closed. Don't go for other more expensive Rowenta it leaked for me. This one is the best, gets hot quick and wrinkles are gone in one go. I know it might be a bit expensive, but trust me its a good investment. Note- I don't know how long it lasts look other comments for that. I have used it for 2-3 weeks and am happy with this product
Pros-
- The cord is a long
- The water tank is definitely big for one ironing streak
- Lots of steam holes
- There is a self cleaning to prolong irons life
- The pointed tip is perfect for precision ironing like a pro

Like Rowenta? So do I. I've had a number of their irons over the years, and have always been happy with them. But in recent years, Rowenta has given into market forces, and they now make a bunch of their irons in China. Happily, that does not apply to this model. This one is actually still made in Germany, and you feel it the minute you pick it up. It's as solid as a rock and performs wonderfully. I am noticing less water seepage as I iron as compared to even previous Rowenta models, and the handling and gliding over the suface is just fine. (Note that this model, like many Rowenta's, uses a stainless steel plate, not a Teflon-coated plate, so be careful not to scratch it up, or it won't be smooth and can then wear your fabric.) The water compartment holds a lot of water, although truth be told, when you are heavily steaming, you'll be refilling a lot, too, because it is passing all that water to the clothing via steam. One minor downside is that if you get the blue-gree model it can be a little difficult to easily check the water level due to the darkness of the plastic used: you almost need a light source of some type behind the iron when checking. Controls work reassuring well, and there is even a nifty "calc catcher" that is removable: we'll have to see how well this works over time, as we have very heavy water here where I live. It's a bit pricier than some other irons, but then again, less expensive than a lot of others I've seen. It works fantatic, and is still made in Germany. I can highly recommend it.

I liked this iron right out of the box. I made sure to follow the manufacturer instructions on what to do to “prime” the iron’s steam feature. I had read reviews in the past, complaining of spitting and such and I think this little step helps that problem. The iron heats up well, the cord is nice and long and I love the weight, while a bit heavy, for a quilter it is good to remind me not to “iron” but press. My first rowenta lasted 20 years, my second about 4, I am hoping to get more mileage out of this one. It came with better reviews than some of the others. The price was really not that bad at just over $60.00. To me it is worth it for the amount of time I use it, ALOT. Every time I sew I will use it, so if anything changes I will update my review. Right now, I love it! Oh, this iron steams well, even, strong steam. I encourage everyone who buys it to do the priming feature, even a few times when first using it, not just once, I think it will help the spitting, dripping complaints from other Rowenta shoppers.

I iron 6 pairs of pants and 6 dress shirts every week and have been doing so for approximately the last three years. I had an iron that I used in medical school and once I started working I thought I would upgrade. Well, to make a long story short - this iron does not live up to the hype that the 4.5 stars would indicate. When you get a shirt from the dry cleaners, it has those nice heavy pressed lines. This iron will not do that. It does not get hot enough. Furthermore, at its highest heat setting it starts to emit the smell of burnt plastic. As for it's steam function, it's nice but extremely inefficient; it blows half of the steam into the air around the iron meaning that if your hand is anywhere near where you are ironing it could get steamed as well. I wanted to like it but it just doesn't do the job as well as the $18 one I had. The one thing that I do like is the tapered nose to get into areas that require detail but the nose does not seem to be near the heating element and doesn't always do a good job. I am used to ironing a shirt and a pair of pants in approximately 10 minutes but good luck doing it with this one.

In summary
Pros: tapered nose
Cons: doesn't heat as well as some irons, inefficient steaming mechanism, bulky requiring slow purposeful ironing, overpriced for what it actually does, smells like burnt plastic at highest heat setting - which seems to be required for anything cotton

Bottom line: try something else before you get this OR if you don't iron a lot of cotton dress shirts or pants this might be perfect for you

Just plowed through the first 10 shirts and a pair of pants, all 100% cotton. Light years ahead of the cheapo-in-comparison iron we're giving up. Very happy with this purchase. I'll just address here the negative reviews I've read:
1. Leaks after a few months/year, whatever - I can't comment on that. But look at what the positive reviewers are saying.
2. It's too heavy - Yes, it's heavier than the iron you bought for $25 12 years ago. And the heft helps you actually do a GREAT job ironing your clothes. It's not "too" heavy, it's just heavier than the cheap irons.
3. Have to refill the tank too often - You have to refill so frequently because you're using 400 holes at once in full steam mode to really flatten out those wrinkles. Yes, I had to refill the iron. But man was it worth it.
4. The water level is too difficult to see with the brown window - I agree, it's harder to see than it might have been with a clear window/tank but the water level is still easily discernible as long as you're not ironing in the dark. Which you shouldn't be doing anyway, okay?
5. The buttons to add steam or a spray are too close to where you hold your hands and they're pressed by mistake too easily - Yes, they are close and yes, I pressed them by mistake a couple of times. By my third shirt I was used to it and not making that mistake anymore. So it's a temporary problem as long as you have normal eye-hand coordination. On the flip side, the buttons are large and very easy to press when you want to.

Great iron.

Nothing but trouble. Had to send back for repairs for spitting brown stuff. Got it back.....cord placement makes it uncomfortable to iron. Plus now not hot enough for a 1700 watt iron...does not even get wrinkles out of cotton....Am going to call again, but if have to send back again...I am without iron in meantime.Do not recommend. I am calling again to try for a refund. I bought extended warranty.

BUYER BEWARE: If you are ok with only a one year warranty, spend the money. If not, buy a cheaper iron you can replace every year or two. I purchased this iron in April 2014, average use of 2.5 hours per week, and it no longer works. Very disappointed spending $78 to last a mere 2.5 years. Customer service offered a small discount to buy a new one due to the expense I would incur mailing my iron to New York for estimate. Won't buy Rowena again.

Horrible product! This iron was never that great but I thought I should give a Rowenta a shot. It goes through lots of water using the steam function so I’m always filling it. Today after 3 months I iron a BRAND NEW white shower curtain and not only did it leak water all over the place but it left rust spots! The shower curtain is ruined and I didn’t even hang it up yet. So mad. I contacted the company so we will see what they say. I miss my Black and Decker !

I usually don't write many reviews, but wanted to help others with my opinion in using the Rowenta DW5080.
This was my 1st Rowenta iron and for the most part, I really loved this iron. Mainly due to it being a heavy iron with plenty of STEAM.
In previous years I would only purchase 1700-watt T-Fal irons. Mainly because I usually get at least 4-6 years of quality ironing and no problems. I just wanted their newer model of a 1700-watt iron, so I chose the T-Fal FV4376 ultra glide iron (last T-Fal prior to purchasing a Rowenta). To me the T-Fal prices was not that expensive (always less than $40 at that time of purchase).
However, since I always heard that Rowenta made excellent longevity type irons, I decided to shell out the extra bucks.
During the 3 years of ownership of the 1700-watt DW5080, I would grade this model as a A+. Heavy iron, plenty of steam (A+++), smooth face plate and got out wrinkles quickly, uses regular tap water, turned off automatically and a very heavy solid feeling iron. But for the extra $50 (when comparing the price, I paid for my T-Fal) and only 3 years, 3 months of use, the DW5080 now leaks.
So, in my opinion, my T-Fal lasted longer, much lighter weight iron, steam (grade “A”), but not as excellent as the DW5080, but they both are 1700-watt iron. But, I like the feel of the Rowenta while ironing. Much heavier solid feeling iron.
I will try another Rowenta 1 more time to see if it last as long as my previous years of the T-Fal ultraglide models. Now, just waiting for the Rowenta DW9081 to arrive.

I am so glad I finally bought a decent iron - I quilt and basically press fabric every day. I need creases put in, and factory ones taken out. This iron does what used to take me several passes with Black & Decker, or *enter low price brand here* and the Shark I had didn't just spring a leak, it gushed a waterfall! Steaming with other irons was somewhat frustrating because they put creases in I didn't want, then couldn't get them out. Or they leaked.... a lot. Or I would just use a spray bottle to save myself the pain.

So back to the Rowenta. I put tap water in - as per instructions - and man this thing steams like a sauna! Gets creases out, and doesn't play around putting creases in like other irons... fabric just gets flat. Like table top flat. 1 pass. Boom, done. It amazed me that an iron could put out heat and steam like that.
I quilt and make this top with lots of seams. Bam. Seams are in and I didn't even have to press the steam button. That Rowenta was putting out steam like no tomorrow and that top was ironed and pressed in nothing flat - literally less than half the time it takes me to set up, I was done. I am more than impressed. I really really like my Rowenta.

I bought this because I thought all that steam output could only improve ironing and efficiency. I used max steam for 100% cotton, like I have always done with my other iron. However, so much steam does two things- 1. SOAK through the ironing board to the point of dripping on the hardwood floors underneath. 2. And the water tank requires refilling after ironing only 2 mens shirts. Completely inconvenient! When I reduced the steam output, it did not remove wrinkles as it should. 3. The temp control is in an awkward place so that each time I placed it upright then pressed it onto clothing again, my finger brushed against the dial, reducing the temp. Even after I was aware and careful, it still happens. It's hard to avoid.
6. The spray and steam burst buttons are also in the way. I had to hold it unnaturally far back on the handle to avoid pressing those. I do have pretty long fingers so maybe if you are petite, it won't be a problem.
7. This is a personal preference, but it's a bit too heavy for my liking.

I threw out my old iron because after 30 years it started to leak black water out of the steam holes and from behind the soleplate. My first use with this new iron I had exactly the same thing happen. The black came out of the steam holes in the soleplate and made a pattern of black spots on my fabric and the ironing board cover that matched the holes. The instructions said to use tap water or to dilute with distilled water if you have very hard water. We don't have real hard water but I diluted with some distilled anyway. I decided to do the self cleaning process just to see what would happen. It said to do it every 2 weeks and this was my first use of the iron. With water in the reservoir I heated the iron up to the highest temperature as instructed. The unplug and over a sing press the de-calc or self-cleaning button. Black water spurted out of the steam holes in the soleplate until the temperature had gone down to the point where nothing would come out. Then the black water started leaking around the edges from behind the soleplate. I can hardly rate the other features of the iron since I only used it once, and could not even finish ironing one item. I am returning the iron and will not ever buy another like this.

Finally decided to replace my 25 year old Rowenta which started to leak water. Very pleased so far with this new Rowenta which I've had about a month.. ... I quilt and use the iron every day. I particularly like how easy it is to regulate how much steam - from none to full blast. At full blast, it's one heck of a lot of steam. I also like the pointed tip. Easy to fill with water. The iron is quite a bit heavier than my previous one which took a while to get used to. Overall, I'm very pleased with this new iron. So far, so good.

This is my third Rowenta. The previous 2 lasted 5 -6 years with twice a week ironing. The only downside of Rowentas is that they eventually leak, and so I only gave 3 stars for durability. My most recent one had to be “babied” for a year and a half before I gave up and bought a new one. By “babied” I mean that I had to mix half and half tap water and distilled water, could only fill up the reservoir to half-way, and had to empty it and plug it in IMMEDIATELY to dry out before ANY amount of non-use (even one hour) or I would be blessed with a big puddle of water on my garment.

Now for all the good things about Rowentas that keep me coming back. These irons have weight to them—not too much, but enough to get a really good press on my husband’s cotton shirts. The design is good and comfortable. The sole plate glides perfectly, and the tip is designed to get into corners and beside buttons. Also, these irons really heat up. With high heat, a nice weight, and a comfortable, slick glide, ironing is a pleasure.

As a bonus, Amazon has a great price on this one!
