It was one of the $99 ones available. You can pay a lot more than that for one of these, but this one has worked fine for me. I was on my third Rowenta when I decided to buy this one. I still have the Rowenta, but this is the one that I use. The steam and weight of this iron are like night and day to the Rowenta.Nancy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235347323004026695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8297064581728205842.post-757676311099166982010-02-05T07:37:07.207-05:002010-02-05T07:37:07.207-05:00Holy crap those lapels are PERFECT!
