It’s On Sale: Rowenta DW8080 Iron

rowenta dw8080 sale

This sale isn’t as sexy as others, but it’s still a good one. Hear me out.

I will admit that I have been using a bad iron for a long, long time. I put so much effort into building my wardrobe, but that effort never seemed to extend to the tools I used to care for it. So a couple of months ago I delved deep into researching irons, and all roads led to the same answer: the Rowenta DW8080.

The DW8080 is the gold standard of “great irons” – Put This On even wrote about them in 2013, when they were around $100 (suckers).  While the German-made Rowenta irons have many different models available, the DW8080 is the classic professional choice – 1700 watts, 400 steam holes, 12.7oz tank (that you can fill with tap water), and the classic Rowenta precision tip.

Currently the DW8080 is available for $55 shipped on Amazon, with free returns as well. This matches the lowest price since tracking started on this item in 2010. While these used to sell for around $100, the typical price these days is around $75. So while not a dramatic savings in terms of dollars, it’s the best price you’ll ever see for a premier iron. Go spend that $20 on a nice lunch, and pat yourself on the back for never having to think about irons again.
