It’s more cost efficient and needs less water as the other one... so that’s good... the Plug attaches amazingly well to the cord... a design that i have not seen before+++
Just make sure you keep all info... receipt, registration, etc. the Germans don’t like to give refunds or like to offer repair or replacement parts... so be prepared in case something goes wrong with it...
Its my third Roventa... if anything at all goes wrong and I don’t get their full support I will never trust this company again... so let’s hope 3 Times is the charm... I love the performance, but not in love with the company... that’s why only 4 stars
Two things:
1. This iron works fantastic HOWEVER it must always have water and steam must always be on for the job to perform as I expect for the price I paid.
2. My knuckles constantly hit the dial controls. I am trying to not let that happen by being more aware but it still happens occasionally.
Those two things being said I still love my iron but thought for the price I would get a great iron without having to always put water in it. Another small thing which isn't really a huge deal, the fabric instruction guide listed on the bottom is useless as you cannot read it with the shine of the font and the color of the background they put it on. At certain angles you cannot see it so I just stopped looking at it. All in all I'm happy with this product but wish I could get a good iron without water. BUT with water this thing performs beyond expectations and extremely fast so I WOULD purchase this item again. Keep in mind this is the 1st expensive iron I have ever owned. I had a $20 iron for about 15 years and just got tired of spending all day ironing so this iron definitely makes the job fast. Maybe you can't really get a good iron without steam, lol, what do I know. Like I said this is my 1st expensive iron. So in the end I'll deal with the "adding the water" all the time because it cuts my time more than in half and does great job!
It’s a good weight. Even full of water. Heavy enough to help you iron but doesn’t tire your arm.
Makes copious amounts of steam. You are able to control the steam. Several hundred steam holes cover the whole bottom. Don’t have to iron with the edge to get steam.
Clear easy instructions. Long cord. Would love the cord to be retractable but it’s worth losing that feature to not have it China made.
I love it ! No complaints.
It was delivered on Sunday which was nice because I had to wait for it before I could continue sewing.
Thank you Rowenta. Feels like a quality iron.
Ok, pretty sad now.... gotta go do same research I did a year ago for a great iron to replace what was the be-all-&-end-all. Thanks for nothing, Rowenta.
, add us to the people piling them to the trash after a year.... same problem where water started pouring out the bottom. This is not some $20 iron from target, for goodness sake, but the customer service reply was about what I would expect on something like that. Basically, “we could look at repairing it for about what you paid for the iron.” Really?! We don’t abuse the iron, we use it every day & maintain it appropriately, hence me biting the bullet & purchasing this “better” iron.... not impressed, Rowenta. Shame on you.
My only complaint is that it is easy to accidentally move the dial, making the iron much hotter (or cooler) then you need for the item you're ironing.
If you need a good iron (even though I try not to iron if I can avoid it) I would suggest you try this one.
I use plain old tap water as directed by Rowenta (instructions say to fill up with regular tap water - not any scented or distilled water). The first time I used the Everlast Anti-calc, I let it run out of water when I was done, then I pressed the steam and spray buttons to make sure there was nothing left and I also dumped it out over the sink. Thought that was sufficient to keep it cleaned out.
I was so surprised when a half-week later I plugged it in and it immediately started spitting white particles out of the soleplate. I’ve included pictures of the particles on a shirt and stuff on my finger that was in the anti-calc chamber after just one use. Ugh! – I shouldn't have white flakes on a shirt I'm ironing on the second appliance use - this is why I got a new iron! So afterward, I re-read the instructions, a bit more closely this time. Here's some information that may be helpful to you:
When you’re done using it, after unplugging and pouring off remaining water like you’re supposed to, flip the steam setting between opened and closed several times to prevent the valve hole into the steam chamber from scaling or backing up. You can also clean out the limestone collector and run the anti-calc features and they will help keep the iron clean.
You can clean out the limescale collector in the base of the iron very easily (When the iron is completely cool, at least an hour after use, just twist the lever a quarter turn and pull down on the chamber and rinse it out). If you live somewhere with very hard water like me, you may need to clean that chamber out all the time. You can also use the Anti-calc function to flush the dirt and scale out of the steam chamber of the iron itself by filling with tap water to max, heating the iron to 3 dots, with the steam feature turned on. Unplug, hold the iron horizontally over a sink, and move the stem lever to the anti-calc position. Water with any particles should start coming out of the iron within a few seconds. After about a minute, move the iron back to the steam position, plug it back in and allow it to heat up until all water is evaporated. Unplug, let it cool down and then wipe the soleplate down.
Once I read the instructions and figured out how to do these additional steps, ironing has been better for me. In addition to regular cleaning, just don't keep water in the iron between uses and your iron will perform better.
As far as features on the iron I like and dislike:
Filling it can be a pain. I fill the iron up using a small spray bottle with about a nickel sized opening. It works well and I don’t spill water that way. Others have complained about the water fill level being too hard to see but I don’t have a problem with that.
Overall, I like the size and shape of the iron’s soleplate. It heats up quickly and glides over laundry easily. Its similarly lightweight to the other Rowenta's I have owned and has similar amount of steam features.
What would make this iron better is a separate little piece of paper or some instructions on the outside of the box saying how to get rid of the particles instead of the information being buried in hard to read directions in the instruction pamphlet. (Why have features if no one will read about it to use them?)
This is my second Rowenta iron. I bought this one to replace my first that also leaked and eventually stopped working. I thought I did something to it so I bought the new iron. I had this new iron for less than a week and it is already leaking at the sole plate and the handle. THE HANDLE!! This was the exact same problem I had with the last rowenta.
I don't know about you, but trying to use an iron that is leaking water all over my hand while trying to use it makes me a tad bit nervous about getting electrocuted.
This iron is going back tomorrow, and I am driving to my local big box store to buy a run-of-the-mill generic iron that will most undoubtedly work better than this overpriced piece of junk.
I completely forgot to do this update after my March update. However due to the outcome (please read reviews written below for the history), I can UP the stars from 3 to 5.
Rowenta serviced iron & replaced the entire reservoir. It was returned to me in 1 week! Not the 2-3 weeks as noted. It's been 9 months and I have absolutely NO problems with this iron. I suspect the iron originally sent to me was somehow damaged before I ever received it. The repairs done cured all the leaking issues and even the lack of stream production when the reservoir goes below half (a complaint I had when I first got the iron). The only quibbles I still have are about ergonomic features and the missing "cup" that used to be standard with all Rowena's. I'm a very happy customer and hope I can keep this iron another 14 years like my first two.
UPDATED REVIEW: March 20 2018
I received DW5080 in July 2017 and wrote a review (you will find below this one). In January 2018, my DW5080 started to leak in various places. The iron was only 5+ months old and I had cared for it according to Rowenta's guidelines. But from past experiences with customer service reps (CSR) of various companies, I didn't want to phone Rowenta. But the leaking started to increase, so I called them 7 times yesterday. They were having phone problems and after taking all my info (including a call back # in case we were disconnected), the call went blank and all the promises of sending me a return label by email never happened. Today, I called back and had the following experience.
The CSR today listened attentively to my troubles: the iron started to leak in various spots around the iron; the front panel in front of the handle; from the temperature dial; and from the screw on the bottom close to where the power cord is attached.
The CSR then asked what kind of water I use. Well, exactly as Rowenta requires - .tap water! CSR says my water is probably hard. I should use bottle Spring Water, but never distilled. This is because the iron has an anti-calc feature, and is more finicky that the Rowenta irons I had previously (1st lasted 15 years; 2nd is 13 years old but leaks too much to use water in it). But the iron must have minerals to work...just not too many minerals.
I'm giving these details in hopes it may help others who are experiencing similar problems. If you do decide on buying this to be aware that the new technology will cause you problems if your tap water has high mineral content. But whatever you do, don't wait to contact Rowenta about a problem. The CSR suspects my iron may be defective and their service center will have to pull it apart and try to fix it. Depending on what they find, they will either repair it or replace it. The CSR generated a case #, and my iron will be serviced for free - it will be gone 2-3 weeks. I'm not thrilled to be without my iron, but I do have the 13 year old one I can use still and it wasn't a hassle to get them to listen and answer all my questions. After I get my iron back, I will do another update to this review letting you know how DW5080 fares in star numbers.
BELOW is the original review I posted after receiving this iron.
Unfortunately, because I've used Rowenta irons made in Germany for over 25 years, this, my 3rd iron by Rowenta, is clearly not of the same caliber as the previous two. It is adequate but they've managed to "dumb it down" to the new economic model of "good looks but less quality." You may find my review nitpicking but it's accurate; especially since Rowenta may still make the best household iron out there.
Observations / Likes / Dislikes:
The stainless steel sole-plate is not as high quality as before - visually is more dull in appearance.
The auto-off feature engages too quickly, so I'm constantly having to wake it up (I sew and this is annoying. My previous Rowentas all had this feature but never at this annoying timing)
The opening to fill the water reservoir at first looks like a great feature because the cover is large. But the design is terrible unless you're filling it from the kitchen sink from a high neck faucet. Using a measuring cup (no longer included with this model) takes a bit of skill. But humans are adaptable and that's why Rowenta has redesigned.
Once the reservoir has about 2/3 of a cup of water left it will NO LONGER give you any steam. I have been used to emptying the reservoir fully. I wonder why this is now a "feature?"
The iron "pings and pops" not sure why, but the spring used for the reservoir cover pings as the heat affects it. I already expect, this part of the iron to break in no time.
The buttons for steam and spray were redesigned for looks but not function. So as you hold the iron and press, your hand inadvertently engages these buttons because they end too low on the handle.
When you're finished using the iron, you CANNOT fully empty it of the water. This is a problem if you plan to keep the iron in good working order. The 1-2 tablespoons of water that [annoyingly] remain will in time corrode the main screw on the iron and it will leak. Not sure what to do about this except store the iron upside down in hopes of it drying out.
It still produces a great amount of steam from the (350+) holes in the sole-plate.
So with all that, I still think this is a good and well above average iron. It was disappointing for me, that the quality & design has not been maintained. My previous DZ5080 Focus is still in service, but she can't be trusted to hold her water. I paid only $59.99 for it and had I cared for her a little better, she'd be in better shape. But comparing the two - DZ5080 & DW5080 - leaves me a little sad.
I plan to write the company and give them my own review. Not sure how they will take it, but it's worth pursuing.
