    L O V E I T !!!

    Comment


      Last night I was working on getting a couple of tops done to take to be quilted. The place that does them for me is having 25% off quilting services this week. Well my iron is dying on me. Looks like it is probably a short in the wiring, if the cord is on the right of the iron it works, if it is on the left it does not. Since I will be getting a new iron I was wondering if anyone has one they would recommend. I know my mom and sister love their Rowenta's, I had one and it lasted about 1 year, maybe mine was a dud. Any advise?

        I have two Rowentas--an Advancer (which is probably 15 years old) and a newer Steamium. Although I've read peoples' horror stories about Rowenta irons, I've never had a problem with them. However, I make sure to empty the water tank at the end of the day, and I regularly run the self-cleaning cycle. The Advancer just started leaking a bit after 15 years but it is a nice heavy iron that heats well so I still use it especially when pressing seams after piecing and I use the Steamium when I need steam. I always use tap water, as directed by the instructions.

              Wow! Thanks for finding this. I saw the Mona Lisa one when it was exhibited at the art museum in Raleigh, NC. Truly astonishing!
