Bought from: Online Store
Category:Irons / Steamers [ Reviews]
What is this notion used for? Ironing, steaming, pressing

Did you get your money's worth after the purchase? Yes!

Is this notion easily available? Yes

Would you recommend it to others? I would HIGHLY recommend this iron to anyone. It's better than all the Rowentas I've owned and thrown away. It's pricey, which is why I kept buying other brands, but now that I've owned a Reliable, I know you get what you pay for in this area. The steam tank lasts forever, but it also NEVER, EVER spits, drips, leaks - at all. I wish I could have afforded the J490A for the removable water tank and the anti-calc feature, but for $100 less, I'm super happy with my purchase. Someday when I can buy the 490A for my sewing room, I'll move my J420 to the general laundry room and get rid of the junky iron in there once and for all :) Also, if you have any questions, the customer service via telephone at Reliable is super informed, helpful, and patient.

How long have you had it? Sounds like a nice iron. I am going to invest in a non steam iron and a steam iron.

I would like to know how long you have had it also? I love my rowenta 5030, but it started messing up about 3 months in, I took 2 of them back to Joannes and then just told them to keep it.

I've had my iron since November 2012.

I have read more than a few reviews that state it lasts about a year. Everyone has loved it- at least until it gives up the ghost.

A year?! That's horrible for the price... I guess we'll see in 8 months or so. My Rowentas never lasted that long though. A few months max. Is there a decent iron at a decent price out there?!
