The steamer has variable steam control so output levels can be adjusted to fabric type. It has a ergonomic trigger for immediate powerful steam. A stainless steel soleplate built with non-scratch properties creates an excellent glide. The steam is distributed through a 6 foot long steam cord for optimal versatility.

 "more than disappointed" 2009-02-19
By MAsews (Pittsburgh, PA.)
After reading all the reviews, I couldn't agree more that this iron/generator has a lot to be desired. I also have an older model that I was replacing. I was so excited when I purchased it after Christmas, so I've had it about 7 weeks. From the beginning it sputtered big water droplets. I called Rowenta, and the lady was very nasty, said it was my water, and said that I needed to buy spring water. I even called my water company, checked on my water hardness, and it's far under the Rowenta recommended max. of 12gr of hardness. (my water is 3.5-8gr depending on the time of year) I bought spring water, tried using it with the unit sitting on the floor (as someone else suggested in the reviews), and still had the same problem. I called Rowenta AGAIN, and this time spoke to another person who said it sounded like it wasn't getting hot enough. I exchanged the unit for another one. The first day it was fine, then it has dripped water ever since. It's going back. Rowenta needs to do better.

 "Put the Base on the Floor do not keep it on the Ironing Board" 2008-12-20
By Very Busy Mum of 3 (Edgewater, NJ United States)
I have purchased this Iron and it works perfectly. I keep the base unit on the floor the cord has enough length to adequately reach all aspects Ironing board. I think the poeple who said it leaked keeps the unit on the ironing board. Keep the unit on the floor and you will guarantee that only seam will rise and exit the Iron. I fill it with warm water to cut down on the amount of time it takes to heat the water. It works at lighning speed. one swipe and your done. My Ironing lady now takes half the time to Iron 4 baskets of clothes. Highly recommended. Also remember to clean and empty the container after use. Go get one.

 "Don't Buy It!" 2008-12-19
By Doug S (Billings, MT)
We have owned this iron for about a year; bought it from Amazon. When it worked, it was great, especially for doing lots of ironing at once. But, it has had a chronic leaking problem, with water seeming to end up on the floor right under where I am ironing so I invariably dragged a just ironed sleeve through a puddle of water. Lack of tank gauge window was not a big deal, and you needed to keep it full for good results. However, today the switch went out and it is dead. Horrible product!

 "Best Iron I've Ever owned" 2008-10-14
By Alice B. Mayurin (Branch, Louisiana)
I lusted over this iron about a year before I finally broke down and bought it. My husband bought it for me with the warning that it better last forever. I have not had the problems other posters have had. The only time I have a problem with leaking is when I walk away for more than five minutes, and even then I just hit the steam button and wait untill the cool water stored in the steam line dispurses before ironing with it. I love this iron. I love the steam, I love how quickly it does away with wrinkles, and I love how my clothes look after I've ironed with this iron. I can usually iron at least an hour before running out of water....and I usually am ready for a break by then. I find if I empty the tank after I finish, and start fresh with 32oz when I start again, I don't have to worry how much is in the tank. While true that it doesn't give much warning before running out of steam.....I can now judge when it's about to happen. I suffered for years with irons that never got hot enough, steamed enough, or put "rust" on my clothing. I simply can't say enough good things about this iron. My friends love it too and I'm sure I'm responsible for at least three sales. Even my mother in law wants one. She could put the "dry cleaners" out of business with her ironing skill. I iron with the heat set to it's highest setting, and the steam at the halfway mark. Perhaps the unhappy customers did not have the iron hot enough. If I were in charge of improving this iron, I would put a bigger on/off button, and like others have said, a gauge to see how much water is in the tank. All in all, I am a happy customer. I reccomend sending off for the cd from Rowenta before purchasing. It really showcases what this baby does. LOVE IT.

I've owned it about nine months.

 "Major Design Defects Keep this Steamer on the Sidelines" 2008-04-20
By Scooter Robinson
I can confirm what the other reviews have said.



Obviously, this iron doesn't have a clear tank, but what isn't readily apparent is that it also has no indication of the amount of water left. I'm forever running out of water in the middle of ironing. Refilling isn't as simple as adding water because the tank gets so hot that you have to let it cool first, or it will spray boiling water and steam all over the place.



I also call this iron the "ready, ready, ready... NOT ready" iron, because it shuts of the boiler for the steam tank, acting like it has steam ready, but then when you pick up the iron and press the steam button, water gushes out and the boiler light switches back on: "NOT ready".



Meantime, my hands are big enough that I'm forever bumping the temperature knob when I go to pick it up, and the stickers / labels seem to have loosened and are peeling off... as a result of heat.



The only positive comment I have is that, when this iron finally does heat up, the amount of steam that it generates is greater than a standard iron with a built-in tank. I would, however, suggest spending your money elsewhere.

MacKayla Lane’s life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she’s your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman. Or so she thinks…until something extraordinary happens.

When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death–a cryptic message on Mac’s cell phone–Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister’s killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed–a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae….

As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister’s death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane–an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women–closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac’s true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book–because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands….

 "I loved this book" 2009-07-29
By Joanne Harris (GA USA)
This book is full of fun. The characters are slow to develop, bu they do eventually. I was drawn into this book, and could not put it down. Great description, creative world, good characters and I love a cliff hanger! Fun, and right now it is free for Kindle.

 "just HORRIBLE!" 2009-07-28
By jfp
I loved Ms. Moning's Highlander series and was really excited to read this new book (even though I was disappointed she had decided to start a new series rather than continue with the Highlander books). This book was terrible- Mac is annoying and Barrons does nothing for me. I can't believe this is part of a 5 book series- I will not be reading any more. Hopefully after she finishes this series, Ms. Moning will write more books like the Highlander series.

 "Quick, fun and absorbing read" 2009-07-26
By Willow Brook
This was a freebie for the Kindle. Otherwise I probably wouldn't have read it. Urban Fantasy is not really my favorite genre. Also, somehow I've managed not to read any of Moning's books. So given all that, Darkfever was a wonderful surprise. The story sucked me right in and was a quick, fun, interesting read. The young (only 22), humorous, and determined heroine, Mac journeys into the dangerous and bewildering world of Fae who are starting to take over Dublin. In an effort to discover who murdered her much loved sister, Mac teams up with the mysterious, not very nice but full of valuable information (which he may or may not share with the poor girl) Jericho Barrons. Mac struggles with whether she can trust Jericho who doesn't go out of his way to reassure her. Nonetheless, he is her best bet for survival and finding her sister's murderer. Meanwhile, Mac's newly discovered psychic skills are extremely useful to Jericho.



Moning does a great job of creating the creepy, frightening Fae and the powers they have over humans. Mac is a well-rounded character who comes into her own under enormous pressure and danger. Jericho is an intriguing hero who keeps Mac and the reader guessing as far as his motivations, ambitions and abilities.



I have only one quibble. I started to get annoyed by the frequent portentous comments such as "I didn't realize then but..." "I later came to see..." "If only I had know how true his warning was." But the ominous references to future events also fit in the 1st person narrative and the unfolding story, so it really is a small quibble.



All in all, this free 1st book has drawn me into the series as well as introduced me to a talented author to read. I give it a solid 4 or even 4 1/2 stars for being such an absorbing read

 "Bimbo in the underworld" 2009-07-26
By Gina K (PA, USA)
To add to what others have said, the story concept is intriguing, but the heroine, Mac, is not. Mac is a twenty-something, but a mental and emotional pre-teen. Starting as a mystery, the story quickly evolves into a horror fest with erotic twists. Mac goes to Ireland to push the investigation surrounding her sister's death, since it seems to have burned out. Then, like Alice, she falls down the rabbit hole by taking a wrong turn in Dublin to enter an underworld where a battle between evil and not-so-evil? is taking place. She discovers she has special powers, can not figure out who the good and bad guys really are, and, as others have said enters a strained relationship with Barrons, some kind of dark prince. There is a lot of ambiguity in the story and characters, with no clear ending. Mac does seem to mature a bit toward the end, thank God, or I would have had to stop reading the book. Overall, the novelty of the story and descriptions of fae kept me interested to finish the book and even read the follow up story, where hopefully our heroine will act her age.

 "4 stars" 2009-07-30
By Nicholas Cordova
Paranoia by Joseph Finder is very plot driven, and I agree with oso diablo that the writing style itself was lacking. It was truthfully hard to creep through the first 20 chapters. And, there were points, being a computer geek myself, where I was screaming, "You don't need an effing keylogger, if you have physical access to the computer."



But by the end, I was jumping out of my seat. Thinking, I want to read more. I completely love Adam Cassidy and hope to see the character again someday.

 "Free download, great read" 2009-07-29
By Jeanne (Harrisonburg, VA USA)
I got this book free as a Kindle download, and it turned out to be one of the best books I've read in a long time. Great for vacation reading or travel. I couldn't stop reading, and there were many surprising twists. I will definitely read more of this author.

 "A good story line" 2009-07-27
By Steve Birchfield (Tampa, FL)
I decided to try Paranoia since it was a free download and wanted something to start reading on the Kindle. I immediately was hooked on it and found myself unable to put it down. His details in describing people and places made me feel like I was part of the main character's (Adam) world. I was disappointed with the use of language which didn't add anything to the story or realism. In fact, at times it even took away from the story. Otherwise, it was a good story line and suspenseful. I was disappointed with the ending. After the great story line and build up the ending let me down.



I am willing to try one of Finder's other books if they are written in the same suspenseful manner. I liked his use of fictitious and real companies and their products. I would hope that they aren't written with all of the language to try and shock the reader or create some sort of realism.

 "Quite enjoyable!" 2009-07-27
By JJ
This book really kept me interested. I was definitely caught off guard by the ending. I would read more by Joseph Finder!

 "Great read!" 2009-07-26
By Leeanne Bergquist (Virginia)
This book was easy to read, hard to put down. No mind-blowing plots, no magical characters that you have to learn the terminology for, just a good story. This book reads like a screenplay, it would make for a great movie thriller. 4 stars instead of 5, because the last couple of pages were a little weak (kind of like Grisham's The Firm.) Enjoy!
