Amazon.com Product Description
Providing a smooth nonstick surface with excellent glide, this iron features a thin stainless-steel soleplate with 400 microsteam holes to deliver perfect steam distribution. The unit combines electronic temperature sensors and controls with LED lights in an easy-to-use system. Red signals too hot, yellow signals too cool, and green signals an ideal temperature for the fabric. In addition, its high-precision tip delivers steam to hard-to-reach areas like seams, collars, pockets, and around buttons. Choose the powerful burst of steam option to help iron out stubborn wrinkles, or select variable steam that matches the right amount of steam to the fabric type. Even more, the vertical steam function allows the iron to be used in an upright position to remove wrinkles from drapes and hanging garments. For safety, a three-way automatic shutoff function turns the iron off after eight minutes if vertical and after 30 seconds if horizontal or tipped over. The iron also provides a self-cleaning system that removes loose mineral deposits and flushes out impurities for clean steam performance. Other highlights include a soft-grip handle for comfort, a large soft-touch rear for extra stability when set on its heel, a large 10-ounce water tank, a covered filling inlet, an anti-drip system, and an easy-to-use precision dial. The 1700-watt iron measures 10-1/2 by 3-1/2 by 5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

BTDT
Lots of steam and hot fast. The steam amount is not adjustable (only on or off). It sometimes drips water. Maybe I received a defective unit.

No more starch!
I had a Black and Decker iron for many years. When it gave up the ghost, I wasted my money on three different irons that didn't come close to the results I got with my B&D. I saw the presentation for the Rowenta on television, and was still full of doubts. I put my skepticism aside and decided to give this steam iron a try. I am not sorry I did. This iron doesn't live up to my former B&Ds performance, it far surpasses it. I haven't used starch since I purchased this iron. I don't need it. A lot of our clothing is made of 100% cotton. Sometimes using the iron alone doesn't flatten the wrinkle. In those times, I keep a spray bottle next to me, and that combined with the steam function, will flatten it every time. I am extremely satisfied with this iron and have recommended it to many people. It is well worth the money.

Best Iron Ever!!!
I bought this iron for my husband who is ex military and who insists on ironing his own shirts for work. He loves this iron!!!! It has many more steam vents than the last Rowenta we had and it makes all the difference in the world. Great product!!
