I have a rowenta iron and I love it! You got a great deal! I think I paid close to $100 for mine several years ago!
Hugs, Nadyne

I had one of these irons also that I paid lots of money for.. it was a lemon.. sputtered water all over .. I should have taken it back.. but did not.. gave it to Goodwill... I am glad you have such a great success with this product..

Gotta love those Deals:):)Looks great and i am happy for you and for anyone that can shop and get great deals .I love a buck deal myself hugs Carolyn

You DID get a deal. I wouldn't trade my Rowenta for anything. I have heard lots of folks complain that theirs leaks. If you turn OFF the steam (turn it to dry) when you finish, it shouldn't leak. Mine has never leaked. I'm on my second one in 3 decades and I'll for sure purchase another one when this one gives up.

Good find, It's always fun to go to estate sales, but when you find such a great deal it makes it so much sweeter.

What a deal!! I wish I could find deals like that My iron is as old as I am. hehe.... Suzanne

It is a nice clean iron, you got a great deal! When my mom was living, she had a neighbor who ironed everything right down to his bluejeans, and sheets, and everything. I own 3 irons, so they should last a life time. I have orange sheets too Toogie. lol!

wow a terrific deal for you! Good for you!~hugs~

Sew Lucky, enjoy!

Good for you to get a good deal. Enjoy it. I am kicking myself that I didn't spurge years ago and get a high end Rowenta. Good idea using sheets for linings. I have purchased brand new sheets for a song and use them for everything from placemats and coasters to test fabric for designs.

I have a Rowenta iron and I wouldn't trade it for the world. It's old but still very reliable. You got a wonderful deal. ;-)

I have a new Rowenta in my closet for at least 3 years! I bought it when Joanns had a miss print in ad. They did not want to honor the miss printed price, but I stood my ground. I do not remember the price but it was VERY cheap! I will use it when my old iron dies. After reading the comments I am thinking about using it soon! Problem is finding it in the over stuffed closet! Hugs, Suzanna

Good for you! I've eyed up the Rowenta, but the price stands in my way! I have a good iron - took me a while to get it as I looked everywhere we went I would check out irons as I am fussy and I didn't like most of them. I've been to estate sales and sometimes they just put such high prices on some things. - but you really got a good deal - now you'll be hooked on the Rowenta!
I've wondered what they were like, but don't know anyone who has one.
I also use sheets (I usually get them at garage sales for a $1) - they are good for so many things. One garage sale we were at someone said something about us getting sheets and my d/h told them yes, but she doesn't see it as a sheet - she sees fabric!

I love my Rowenta! I got it on sale, NOT as much of a deal as yours though. I'd heard so much about them I figured they were worth it since I was buying a new cheap one so often. They get nice and hot and have lots of steam. It has been worth every penny. Hope you get lots of use from yours.
I use sheets to line curtains with - nice and wide and usually close to perfect length.

I hope to find a deal like you did! Excellent for you. Quality tools really makes a difference. I have an ergonomic mini iron and I really need a clover with attachments.

I love estate sales. Leave your hubbies at home unless you need them to pick up the finds. I go the last day and final hours and there are the bargains!!! Sometimes everything is gone and some times not. I am glad you got that iron. I love them. My daughter loves them. My sweetie bought his children Rowenta's after he used mine. There is no other iron like it!!! Kay

I sewed professionally for many years making custom made window treatments. Once I discovered Rowenta it was the only iron that I used in my workroom. The quality is unsurpassed, and certainly is worth the extra initial cost. When I would buy a new one for the workroom the old one would come home with me. LUV em, LUV em. Suzanna get that iron out of the closet today. You will wonder why you waited.

Great bargain Toogie.

I found one at a garage sale a young woman was having and got it for a dollar, don't think she knew what she had, it looks brand new and irons soo good, love it

A great find indeed.. love the orange

Sorry but you are so wrong in calling it an "I##n", that is a four lettered word and should not be used on this site<br /><br />
This is actually a "Craft pressing " device. I have had a "Craft Pressing "device for many years and should know the difference and I will NEVER own another "I##n in my life as they are so tiresome to use where as a "Craft pressing " device is so easy and a pleasure to bring out and use all day long if need be.<br /><br />
please do not use that nasty four lettered word again .<br /><br />
annie.

Great bargain. I only use Distilled water in my iron I feel it makes them last longer.

I like Rowentas also toogie, my daughter has one. /Lillian

Great find, great buy! Now I will start looking for sales on sheets.

Great price ! I purchased this Powerglide iron many years ago, it still works the same, like new. My new one was around $ 80 back then.
Hugs, Bonnie

I had a Rowenta, best iron on the market. Mine lasted about 20 years plus and rusted so had to be . Unfortunately I could not find a Rowenta at that time and had to settle for another brand. If I do see a Rowenta again here in South Africa I will definitely buy it whether I need it or not. Enjoy yours. Hugs
