I have had Rowentas in the past and loved them. "Spitting" was always a
problem, eventually. As a shop appliance, I presume that It got more use
than the usual iron. My present is a Sunbeam with automatic shut off. Not
a good choice. It shuts off in about 45 seconds because it is in prone
position...even if it is moving!! Hardly time to press a linen napkin, never
mind a garment. So far, it doesn't spit. The burst of steam is fair but
not up to the pressure of the Rowenta
If I were in the market for a new one, especially for bespoke sewing, I
would definitely get something with a separate water tank. Borrowed the
steamer from the college last year when preparing the vast collection on the
auction block and that was such a plus!

I _adore_ my Rowenta DG-980 Steam Generator, but unfortunately it isn't
available any more :-( I use it all the time, and have had it for about 5
years. It makes loud noises now when the water reservoir gets low (which
it didn't used too) and very occasionally spirts rust (probably 'cause I
don't remember to clean it out as often as I should...) but it makes
ironing immensely easier. I actually like it better then most of the
industrial irons I've worked with - it's less fussy, and the steam it
produces gives me equally good and fast results.
Good Luck!
