I just dropped my Rowenta on my hard tile floor for the fifth or sixth time, and it finally started to leak. Whaaaaa!

I just looked at Consumer Reports - their last iron review was in 2006. (I wrote them and asked them to do another soon.) I also contacted Threads magazine since most of their recent reviews are on more expensive "ironing systems."

I've got the Rowenta SuperPress 055 (external boiler) but it's a few years old. That said, I can heartily recommend an iron with an external boiler. No spitting, no lime, no staining ***ever*** because the water is below the iron and it's just steam being piped to it. Also, you can steam with a cold sole-plate.

Costco Online has the EuroPro Shark external tank iron for $99 usually; I haven't tried it, but if it works that's an excellent price.
