I am about to give up on Rowenta irons. This one seems to be uneven in temperature, going up and down. It is not as hot as I had hoped it would be.Others I have bought “spit” the water in the tank. I willl just buy less expensive irons in the future.They are about as effective..

Paid extra for more suped-up version (made in France vs China), and this thing LEAKS when using steam and it's brand new! My old one I'd had for 25 years and only recently started leaking.
We love our SteamForce+ steam Iron, only concern my wife has is the weight of the iron. Keep in mind my wife is nearly 5 foot, 107 lbs! We've always had Rowenta irons and only complaint has been leaking water after owning for a period of time which can be very annoying, this iron so far hasn't leaked!
This is a solid iron, steams well. I just wish it got a little hotter and the soleplate was larger and came to a smaller point like the old Steam Force.
I have had Rowenta irons for many years! What a great product! just recently had the Rowenta Professional iron and can’t give enough rave reviews, I just replaced it with the Steam Forced iron. So far it’s done a good job. I miss the clip on the cord to help better with storing when not in use. I’m not sure I like the steam burst button’s position yet, but sure I will get used to it in time. With all things new and not do familiar, it takes time to get use to. I do hope that this iron does not leak as the professional did with long term use.
