Excellent - Don't know what the others are referring to December 4, 2006

We have had our PowerDuo for a little over a year and love it. The iron heats up quickly and easily takes care of wrinkles. No problems with the steaming ability or any sort of residue. I would highly recommend this product.

don't waste your money March 24, 2006

We had a Rowenta Surfline Inox iron for about 15 years which we loved. My husband irons his own shirts so we both agree on this. After 15 years, it started to show it's age so I purchased the Power Duo. We loved the Surfline for it's incredible steam. The Power Duo is terrible when it comes to steam ability. It only seems to steam if the water tank is completely full. Please don't waste your money on this model.

Disapointment from Heavy User January 28, 2005
19 out of 20 found this review helpful

I was very disapointed when I started ironing and every item I ironed left starch flakes all over. I could tell the plate never would get very hot (I had it on the hottest setting). Cleaning each piece after ironing was not worth it, this is supposed to be one of their upper line irons though my old $20 B&D beat this model. Don't think I'll buy another Rowenta.

Lacks the 'fun' of most Rowentas October 25, 2004

After deciding against the Intra-Steam found on the Rowenta Perfect (I kept getting steam burns on my hands), I decided on the PowerDuo. This iron has a different sole plate than other Rowentas, and it doesn't glide as well. There is also an overall change in the shape of the iron, leaving it feeling chunky and awkward in the hand. Other Rowentas that I have had were almost fun to use, and I ironed many items just because it was no longer such a chore . . . but the PowerDuo leaves me with the same dread of ironing that I had with my old GE, which I was grateful to replace with the PowerGlide 9 years ago. Given what I paid for that PowerGlide, and the length of time that it worked perfectly, making ironing no longer dreadful, the Rowenta doesn't seem so expensive. The Perfect was only 6 oz. heavier than the PowerDuo (my old PowerGlide was lighter than the PowerDuo), but I find myself pressing down on the iron in an attempt to get the wrinkles out. This is the first Rowenta that I have experienced a real problem with spots of water developing on my clothing . . . and I carefully read the manual, making certain that I followed the instructions meant to prevent just such problems. The PowerDuo also puts out less steam than either the Perfect, or my 9-year-old Powerglide (which was broken when falling from the board . . . otherwise, I would never have replaced it). I'm not at all impressed with the much-touted vertical steam . . . I couldn't get it to work well on the PowerDuo. I still have my love for Rowenta irons, but this one just doesn't compare favorably to any other Rowenta . . . it will be returned, and I will continue to seek a Rowenta that I like.
