Amazon.com Review
Designed for steaming and pressing clothes during travel, this compact iron also comes in handy at home when its vertical-steam feature can be used for hanging garments and drapes. For pressing, the steam iron has a 4-1/2-inch-long polished soleplate that's perfect for creases, pleats, cuffs, and collars. For steaming, a durable plastic cover slips over the soleplate and includes both a brush for opening fabrics' weaves to help steam penetrate and a lint pad that removes pesky particles before the steam reaches them. The full-range thermostat permits precise adjustment and ensures the proper temperature for all fabrics. A steam-burst button provides extra power for tough wrinkles. The removable tank is transparent for monitoring the water level, and a dual-voltage dial adjusts the iron to either 120- or 240-volt systems so it works worldwide. The iron comes in a rugged, 12-inch-long nylon travel bag. --Fred Brack

Terrible Quality! Steer clear.
My wife and I had a pretty nice Rowenta steamer that we got as a wedding gift about 4 years ago. Well, that one didn't have the dual voltage switch and when we were in Europe, we basically fried it (our fault - we thought the converter would work with it, but apparently not). Anyway, we replaced it with this model last fall. Big mistake. The first thing I noticed is this one is made in Mexico, the old one was made in Germany. Also much cheaper quality - the parts, the fit and finish. We turned it on and it never heated up. Took it back and brought #2 home. This one heated up, got so hot that it emitted a scary smell (like when you clean an oven) and the plastic cover plate got too hot to the touch. Based on reading the manual and the website, I don't think this is supposed to happen. At any rate, we were never able to get it to emit steam, no matter how long we waited or how much we pressed the button. Back to the store to exchange it for #3. This time we made the clerk try it out to see if it was just us. It wasn't. None of the store personnel were able to get it to work. When they gave us a new one, I asked them to try it as well. Same result. They had to open yet another new one out of the box (we're up to #4 now, if you're still trying to keep count) which worked. Admittedly I was pretty leery at this point, but we were leaving on a trip in less than a week and they stocked no other steamer models. So I took it home and it went with us to Japan. Worked fine the first few times, but after about a week of travel it began to fall apart. Now it leaks profusely and the steam output is about half what it once was. I contacted Rowenta but the hassle to box this thing up, send it to the service center in San Diego, etc. is just not worth it to me. Needless to say, I am through with buying Rowenta.
What a piece of garbage
I find it ammusing that anyone could write a good review of this product. I travel quite frequently on business and I always carry a steamer, I purchased this one and let me tell you it is pretty useless, the amount of steam that cmoes out of this unit would not take simple wrinkles out, while traveling It would take me a good 45 minutes ( I was desperate ) to get a passable shirt. I did use it as an iron for little bit till I gave up and stopped carrying it. Note , it has a plastic attachment on the head for the brush part, mine broke the first week (very flimsy)and at that point the appliance is useless as a steamer since you honestly need to brush your garment with this frustrating tool.
What a great and useful product...
For a long time now I've been looking for this kind of product...as soon as I saw Rowenta Steam N' Press over at Amazon.com I knew I've got to have that one.Although this product is only available for shipping at the U.S. that didn't stop me from buying one. What I did was to let this product shipped to my Aunt's address in L.A. and have her sent it to me here in the Philippines. I've been using this product since last month and so far it's working just fine with my clothes. I could also bring Rowenta Steam N' Press during my travel because it's handy enough. I can just hang my clothes and have it steamed vertically or I can switch it into a flat iron. It's really great! not to mention convenient...It's dual voltage feature makes it flexible and functional wherever I go...I love this product!
