Reviews Rowenta DW5080 Focus Steam Iron with 400-Hole Stainless Steel Soleplate 1700 Watt

I adore this Rowenta DW5080 Focus Steam Iron! Ironing is so much easier now for me! It just glides across your clothing, its everything they claim it to be! Rowenta is known for producing superior products and this iron definitely holds true to the brand. The 400 steam holes make ironing a pleasure. It heats up quickly and uses energy efficiently. You will be happy with this one.

The Rowenta Dw5080 is great -what a real steam iron should be. The first time I filled it it really gave off steam, has a nice feel, good weight, and glides easily. Heavy cotton fabric, which used to take several passes, now takes one and looks perfectly smooth. All of the functions are easy to see and use and it has a large water tank.

The reason I chose this Rowenta DW5080 iron is because of the look and size. I'm a 6'5" male with pretty big hands so I like the fact that the handle has a nice sturdy feel to it and the steam and squirt buttons are big. Performance is astounding. The iron glides across your clothes and the bursts of steam are even on every pass.

What I noticed immediately is that my ironing time was cut in half. With my old iron it would take more then a few minutes to get warmed up and when finally warm I would have to make several passes to get that nice ironed shirt look I enjoy.

User instructions clear and to-the-point. Drawings are excellent. A picture is worth a thousand words although in this case, the written word complements the illustrations. They go hand-in-hand. This Rowenta DW5080 Focus Steam Iron with 400-Hole Stainless Steel Soleplate is a serious iron. It gets down to business fast with a quick warm-up that emits lots of steam to take out those wrinkles.
