I have a rowenta iron for less than a year. Model No.DZ2060 U1. The wire cover split and I got a short. It frightened me so that I threw out the iron and don't even know if I was covered under warranty. I am a senior citizen and have owned several irons for the last 60 years and have never experienced this type of short. I am very disappointed because I had heard many nice things about this iron. This experience has put a bad taste against your iron and will not be buying a rowenta in the future, nor will I recommend it to friends and family. T. Marchisello read full review »
