I purchased this iron approximately 3 years ago, because I value a quality iron. After using it, there is no question in my mind that Rowenta makes a very effective iron product. The problem is that it only lasted 3 years . . . I was expecting an investment in a quality appliance to last at least 5 - 7 years. This is a disappointing result and I'm not planning on buying a Rowenta to replace this one.

This product developed a faulty power cord after only a year. The auto off function is directly linked to the position of the power cord and the thing would only stay on if the cord was untwisted and swiveled in a certain position. After about a year and a half the iron stopped turning on altogether.
If it had lasted longer the iron would have been great. It is heavy with a stainless steel face that stayed relatively crud free.

Growing up in Germany, I only buy genuine German irons. This Rowenta certainly holds up to the company's reputation. It's heavier than a "normal" American iron, but that helps when you want a sturdy crease on your sleeve or pant leg. Definitely a great iron for under $100.

this iron has leaked from day one. It leaks when I am pressing, It leaks when I set it on the heel. I have contacted the manufacturer, but all I got was some "canned" response. The suggestion was of no help. For a "highly rated" product with a price tag to match, this iron has finally hit the trash can after 2 1/2 years. My replacement???? A Black and Decker for $39. It has not leaked once. So price is not always a good indicator of quality......
Thanks,

I researched irons for about a week before deciding to buy the DX6900 over the much reviewed Black & Decker 2000. I liked the extra power it offers (1700) and that it was made in Germany. The unit is very well made and inspires confidence.
After using it for about 3 months, all I can say is that it is the best iron I have ever had. We have a cleaning lady and she loves this iron too. It heats up very quickly with its 1700w of power, and this makes a big difference when you have to use the pro steam feature. The DX6900 is one of the more powerful irons in this price range. The pro steam feature is very good. The steam output is fantastic and really gets the job done. The steam feature can only be bested by pro level irons like the Rowenta DG503.
If you use your iron a lot and prefer not to have the auto-shut off feature then get the Rowenta DX6650, which I believe is essentially the same iron without the shut-off mechanism.
About the leaking problems that I have read about: I have not got any leaks in mine. I do store my Iron upright and I put bottled drinking water in it, not distilled water, which is not recommended by Rowenta. If people have experienced leaks it may be do to one of these reasons.
When ironing with steam this Iron is superb, and can press most clothes with one pass.
Highly recommended.
