I'd go with the best reviewed Rowenta, however your budget might not hit a bilf product. Expect maybe 7 years of moderate to heavy use.

I have a steam Oliso and a reservoir steam Rowenta, both are about ten years old. What you do need to do to maintain whatever you choose, and your textiles, is only fill it with distilled water. Distilled water only.

You heard wrong. Look...respectfully....your didn't hear, you took 5 amazon reviews and drew a line to the sun. Rowenta is a BIFL iron and has been a great brand for years. EVERY product ever made has haters. Someone right now is in their Lamborghini Urus and calling it a piece of shit. Now unlike the Urus where 5 bad reviews vs a production run of 15,000 has a bit of weight, 5 bad iron reviews where they produce 15,000 of them daily...that has a different weighting.

Don't scare yourself with reviews. Hit the gym, take your vitamins, say your prayers, audit a statistics course and buy whatever Rowenta trips your trigger.

Go with the Rowenta; however, make sure the model you pick is made in Germany. The cheaper ones are made in China.

We had a Rowenta and I didn't love it. Now we have an industrial Sapporo iron, which is indestructible, cheaper, and heats up faster.

I have a Rowenta Pro Master and I love it so very much. It is amazing! I have had it for five years now and it is still like brand new.

I only use filtered water- we have a reverse osmosis filter spigot on our sink and I use that.

I have a 18 year old Rowenta that still works great. I don't iron a lot so it has not gotten a ton of use but it's great that it's been reliable for so long.
