NEVER BUY THIS IRON, August 10, 2010
This review is from: Rowenta Powerglide 2 Iron DX1700 (Kitchen)
Iron has worked okay for me, except for the power cord.
LESSON LEARNED. NEVER BUY AN IRON IF THE ELECTRIC CABLE IS NOT FIXED.
I don't know why I bought an iron with a moveable cord.
Thinking back now, I never saw a problem with a fixed cord.
Maybe just thought it was cool.
Like other products, engineers design something but don't think long-term.
For last couple months, this iron has been shorting out.
Moving the plug around temporarily resolved the problem.
Working less often, though.
I read on the internet about someone drilling out the difficult screw heads, and fixing the wiring.
Sorry, but I am not going to take it apart, fix it, and put it back together with tape.
IT IS GOING IN FILE 13. Ended up buying a Black and Decker like the other one I have.
Do traveling, so I need more than one iron.

This product worked only for slight over an year. It had only one year of warranty. So i rate this product very low.
