I am very happy with this product. It saves me a lot of time. On an occasional basis I will steam for an hour or so. I am steaming wool, so I love the light weight iron and I can use it for at least an hour without refilling.
It's a little bit cumbersome regarding refilling it when it's already hot (or maybe I should read the directions further), but I have no complaints.
I put the base on the floor and I have no water dripping ever.
I hope it lasts longer than some of the other reviewers have experienced. I will be very disappointed if it doesn't last more than two years.

Very disappointed with this iron. In April of 2008 I found this iron and thought I'd died and got to iron heaven. I loved how it steams. I paid $180 but last month it started steaming out from under the cap. Not just a little but so loud that I'm afraid it will blow the cap completely off. I wrote Rowenta and their solution was to buy a new iron! I couldn't believe what I was reading. So, this iron didn't last 2 years, cost a small fortune and you want me to buy another one?! Just know when you buy this iron it dies in a couple of years.

I bought the DG5030 Pressure Steam Iron, because my mother gave it great reviews. I've owned it for 2-years now. I thought Rowenta was suppose to be THE HIGH QUALITY product, so I spent the $150 for it. Unfortunately, the thing is FALLING apart. The hand piece has separated from the bottom iron part. When looking inside, I can see that the plastic has corroded away and in the front section at the point there are 2 "rust" circles that have broken through and the plastic is brittle and breaking away. Another thing this thing does in when warming up, after being powered on, say 30-seconds or so the ENTIRE unit jumps up & give s LOUD BANG, that probably isn't normal either.
Today, 3/8/2010, I called Rowenta Customer Service and explained this issue. I was told the unit is beyond repair and she (Tricia) would be able to send me a $10-$20 rebate towards my next Rowenta, YEAH RIGHT! I explained that I want a better resolution than that. I requested to speak with a manager and was informed that the manager would call me later this evening. That hasn't happened yet. I'll be taking pictures as well. Also, I'm considering reporting Rowenta to the Better Business Bureau, not really sure if that will bring satisfactory results either. This is just frustrating to believe that I bought a product I thought was HIGH QUALITY and turns out to be a P.O.S.!!!!!
From reading the other not so positive reviews, it looks like I'm not going to receive a follow up from them or anything else. I will not be buying from this company again.
If anyone knows of a better pressure steam iron brand, please share.
Thanks!

I bought this iron to iron impossible to iron polyester uniforms. I really enjoy putting nice sleeve creases and pant creases into them, but found that with a traditional iron, I couldn't get it hot enough to produce enough steam or to get a good crease into it. I put several shine marks on the fabric.
With my new pressure iron and steamer (PIAS, yes I just made that up) I can do this a lot more easily. Now reading all the comments about this PIAS I knew it wasn't perfect, but I don't always believe the really negative reviews when there are a bunch of positive ones. I shelled out the money and got it myself.
Issues
1) This thing does leak. I'm using it on a low steam setting and low iron temp. Whenever I move the fabric, I've noticed that the steam must condense in the iron and cord and then spit out of the iron. I've only used it a few times, but I just push the steam "On demand" (is this cable TV?) button and shake the iron over the base with a paper towel down there. It seems to get the water out for the meantime.
Honestly, it does spew out a lot of water, but it doesn't bother me much with this. But I can see that this would be very annoying if it were something you didn't want to be soaked.
2) It does stink. I was prepared for this to happen. I got a Rowenta garment steamer for my wedding, and I used it once. It smelled like a dying skunk. Basically just heated plastic, and it was sick. This steamer smelled the same, but it seems to have gone away a bit after a few uses.
For the price, I'll deal with the spitting water, but wish that it didn't do it. If you are ironing things that can't afford to be re-wet, I wouldn't go with this. I mean, it's just water - it does dry. Due to the price, I gave it 4 stars, if it were more expensive with these issues, I would have rated it lower.

This iron had to be returned immediately as it constantly spit "pink" water onto the fabric. I have had a Rowenta (with tank) for over seven years and had been completely satisfied. Now after checking further, I find that Rowenta is not what it used to be - I will not be purchasing a Rowenta in the future.
