I have had 2 Oliso's and much like the other commentor, Oliso would not replace after the second one for almost the exact same reason. I have been thru 3 Rowenta travel irons. My friend, awar of my issues with the travel iron, had her rowenta burn out as well. When she contacted the customer service, she INSISTED on one made in Germany (I didn't know there was a difference) rather than China. They tried to get out of the agreement, but my friend stood her ground, recounted my experience and told them she would spread the news about Rowenta all over social media until she received an iron that would work. She got the iron made in Germany and has had it for 2 yrs with NO Problem!<br /><br />Gmama JaneGmama Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02866486725742104875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-80713158689857742942015-04-16T10:41:01.212-03:002015-04-16T10:41:01.212-03:00Congratulations on your fabric line.

I've found that irons just haven't been the same since the auto shut off came on the scene, but there are times I've forgotten my iron and was very happy for that safety feature.

But sadly I dropped it on the floor and the water container broke. Nothing could ever replace that one. <br />The iron I have now shuts of if you leave it unused (movement detector I think) for some minutes, pretty good.<br />On the iron board covers I have no clue on how many I have used, but I don't scorch them - just manage to get glue allover.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-74491807336531278422015-04-15T13:05:07.622-03:002015-04-15T13:05:07.622-03:00I, too, am excited to see your new fabric line!

I have a larger Rowenta I use in the sewing room.<br /><br />I've heard many things about the Olisio iron, both good and bad, but I think that applies to all brands. I do not believe there is one brand in particular that is perfect.Jeannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13570549234550398690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2745598838662491175.post-17407717711215696252015-04-14T13:26:20.602-03:002015-04-14T13:26:20.602-03:00Can't wait to see your fabric line, Kaaren!

The first iron had a melt down - seems like the thermostat went out and the iron overheated. I smelled something to find my ironing board scorched. (Iron WAS lifted) The replacement iron was a refurb and did not heat well. The third iron did not heat well if the water reservoir was full! Olissio refused to replace it because they said I waited too long to request service. It's been a number of years since I used the Olissio, hopefully you have a better experience. <br />I'm now using a EuroSteam. When it's working well it great, but most of the time it piddles all over everything I'm ironing. :-\or-ar quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02219588281633012698noreply@blogger.com
