apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

These days? I don't iron my clothes at all because I had to finally give up on my cheap old iron and retire it. I look sadly in my closet at my wrinkled clothes and think about how I will wear them again when I can afford a new (maybe not so cheap) iron. And some items I just wear and hope that the wrinkles work as a fashion statement.

um. . . almost never. but if i win this, that all could change and my mother would be very proud.

Last Year:
I put off ironing till I'm done showering in the morning and realize there is absoutely nothing wearable in my closet, leaving me with no choice but to IRON!
Now:
With a baby in the picture, and feeding/playing with him takes a higher priority in the morning, so I iron a week's worth over the weekend.

I iron once every couple of weeks -- since I work in a casual environ. most of what I wear doesn't need to be pressed. BUT I am about to buy my first set of linen sheets and although I suspect I will prefer them rumpled, I may occasionally iron them for a crisp look. This iron would do the trick!!!

Gimme! I have been hanging my clothes in the shower for too long and now that I have a new job requiring professional looking clothes the shower method just won't cut it anymore. Please save me from myself!

i bulk iron probably once a month but I'd love to put my old iron out to pasture for use in crafty things if i had a new rowenta!

Never - because my iron is past prime and my ironing board is broken.

Sure, I wouldn't mind receiving a new iron.

I have to iron my clothes every day with a small travel sized iron (its no bigger than my fist)! I have to use plain water rather than starch because its the only thing that I can afford! But what's a poor capitol hill staffer supposed to do? You can't be a public servant and be wrinkled!

Not often enough, and the skirt I am wearing today could certainly use a few less wrinkles!

pretty much every morning, in a mad dash to get out the door

I don't iron my clothes at all. (Confession: I never learned how to iron.)

If I have something that needs to be ironed, I ask my husband to do it. Most of his clothes need to be ironded and so he irons his tall stack of shirts whenever we do laundry. But if I won this iron, I might even let him teach me how to iron my own clothes.

Once a week and some things like shirts every morning while brushing my Teeth or getting bfast ready.

I use my iron every day because I sew.

I'm entering for my boyfriend, who used an iron for the first time 2 weeks ago....and now irons his shirt every morning before work. Miracle!

If you saw me today at work, you'd know the answer -- not often enough!

On the plus side, I have an ironing board. However, I have learned that laying your wrinkled clothes on the board does not make them any less wrinkled.

For the past 20 years, when we both worked outside the home, every week I iron a weeks worth of clothes, usually pants and tops for both of us. 20 pieces, plus anything extra that we wore on the weekend above jeans and a tshirt.
Since I'm now working from home, I still *lovingly* iron his shirts and pants to have a crisp crease on the sleeve and down the pants; and whatever I might wear that needs it. I do all it on Mondays, usually an hour (used to be two) out of my life that I'll never get back. Can you tell I hate it? But I'm not willing to pay the drycleaning bill even though I could. I set up in front of the tv and watch Judge Alex for an hour, it's not so bad. OH yeah...the margaritas help too. :-)

Not nearly enough -- but I would with this fancy-pants iron..

I used to iron when I didn't feel like washing clothes. A little bit of steam and a splash of Febreeze goes a long way! But my cheapo iron left spots on my favorite black pants and now I am forced to use shower steam only. I also spend a lot more on dry cleaning now.

I don't iron my clothes much either...BUT I started taking pattern making and design courses a few months ago and my puny little Rowenta Steam and Press Steambrush (which is really cute) is not sufficing when I need to iron yards of fabric at a time.

I iron about once every week, on sundays, for about one hour. That's usually enough time for me iron the work clothes I need for the upcoming week. Of course, if I head out to dinner mid-week, I'll iron a little more frequently.

More than I'd like too! My ironing board is a table with a ironing "mat" of sorts that I end up using at least 4 out of 7 times during the week! I have a good ole black and decker right now, but it's steam power (oh so necessary for those fabulousy hard to flat iron clothes) is lacking...I needs me a steam button!!! And that angular shaped top would be of great help too!

I just started ironing my shirts and pants every single day when I get out of the shower. The hot hot humid DC summer makes anything but cotton or linen feel lousy, and that cotton wants a serious ironing before it hits Capitol Hill (which seems also to be the Capitol of Ironing). So I iron (even my tie) every single day. But all I have is a cast iron frying pan that I heat up with a blow torch. If I could just get a new iron as amazing as the Rowenta I'd have crisp clothes in half the time. (Please!)

Never! I am afraid of burning my clothes, so it's the boy's job...he sure would appreciate this iron...

I don't need this because I already own a Rowenta - Although it's a less expensive model than this one, it truly is the best iron I've ever owned.

It heats up super-fast for those quick morning jobs on my dress shirts and produces loads of steam from regular tapwater. It has auto-shutoff for those times i forget to unplug the thing, a self-cleaning function and the stainless steel baseplate makes for uber-smooth ironing with no fear of snagging fabrics.

If there's one thing I miss from home when I'm staying in a hotel and need to press a shirt, it's my Rowenta.

honestly, I don't iron very much but with this I promise I will do more.

Sadly, I depend on steam from my shower and Wrinkle Releaser. Not the most efficient solutions...

I iron things randomly. It's the guy's job to iron. He irons a couple times a week, shirts, pants, whatever. We've got a really ancient iron so a new one that has mucho steam power would be awesome! Come to think of it, I use the iron to steam rather than iron, so yes, I would love to win this iron!

I've used a Rowenta--holy cow! I need to iron more. With this, I would dress more professionally and advance my career :)

Luckily, living in LA, unironed linen is considered to add texture to an outfit. Atleast, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. I iron about every other week.

I also iron once about every three to four weeks. It takes forever and so I usually wait until all of my work clothes are so wrinkly I can't wait any longer. I watch a movie or two and iron everything.

I iron clothes under two conditions: 1) there is absolutely NO clothing options other than the pants I line dried so are all wrinkly and I have some place to be where I am required to look less schlubby than usual, and 2) I'm going to dinner at the home of a close family friend who is a retired Home Ec teacher.

I never iron my clothes. But then, I don't own an iron.

I iron clothes as seldom as possible. However, I sew and quilt and seem to be constantly ironing fabric.

I iron a bunch on Sunday so I'll have clothes ready during the week. If I had this iron, it would probably take a lot less time!

my clothes? rarely. when sewing? all the time.

My husband would love this! He's really picky about ironing his clothes (and does mine for me too), but has been cursing our inexpensive iron of late.

Not as often as I will soon!! I just picked up a brand new ironing board and cover super cheap from Craig's List to take with me when I move out of my Mom's house in August (finally!) And since fall is on the way I need to stock up on cute jeans that will need ironing. All I need now is this iron!

Everyday the boss is in the office (3 - 4 days per week) I iron a shirt, and usually touch up a pair of slacks. I do all my own laundry, never use a drycleaner except for infrequently worn wool suits. I'm a cotton loving man, and I never mind ironing. But a heavy iron with good steam is a great thing.

my cheap iron does nothing to combat wrinkles in my clothes, so i don't iron much at all anymore. so sad, too, because i have at least 10 pieces just waiting to be pressed and worn.

I have a Rowenta iron and I love love love it! I iron twice a week when I do laundry. I like my closet to look like a mini designer clothing store. Everything facing the same direction, like items together, folded the same size, and pressed nice and crisp!

UGH. Being a college student, a few wrinkles are acceptable. But now that I got an internship at a hospital, I will have to iron weekly! This iron would be ammmazing!

I iron about once a week. Sometimes more if I iron my bedding. I love to have ironed bedding.-

Rarely. I'm in the annoying habit of piling up clothes to be ironed until I have nothing left to wear.

once a month, maybe.

I don’t own an iron. I own a steamer. When I went to my best friends wedding a more prepared bridesmaid impressed us all with her steamer. I’ve been steaming ever since. As for an actual iron, no can do. When something can’t be steamed, I take it to the Lower East Side tailor and pay $2 for an iron (or the whole $8 for a wash and iron)
This iron appears to be an iron AND a steamer. It looks like sweet nectar from the gods!

Once a week or so. Just to keep the creases in my suit pants, and out of my suit jackets. Ah, but with this beauty...watch out!

I iron my shirts whenever I need to, about once a week.

I iron maybe once every two months when I visit my parent's house. They have a nice laundry room where I can spread out and really handle my business. Since I live in a studio apartment and have no room for an ironing board I usually make due with a crappy hand steamer from Duane Reade. It is no replacement for an iron and it makes me sad.

Well I like to make a good first impression so I iron everyday right before I put my clothes on (this is my first full time - since graduating in May). Also, I'd like to pull out my sewing machine and get to work on a few projects. A nice iron will put professional touches on my DIY projects.

Roman shades anyone?

i never iron... but that could be because i inherited an iron that could qualify for an antique. i'm lucky i don't have to heat it on the stove!

I iron a huge batch of work clothes about once every two weeks, and would love one of these!

in our house the iron is used 7 days a week--every morning.
Hubby ironed his dress shirt this am for a graduation ceremony
today and I iron vest and slacks. We have 3 irons at present==and three in the garage.....husband has been in a quest for the perfect iron for years but his frugal Scotch blood
won't spring for the Rowenta......maybe I can win one!!
Thanks,Missy from the Bayou

Ooo, I just threw away my broken iron this morning! I have to sneak my roommates when he's in the shower. I iron my clothes three or four times a week - just whatever I'm about to put on for work, if it looks too crumpled to be seen in.

Honestly, I iron my clothes (only a few) about once or twice a month when the collar starts to drift off it's normal spot.

Call me lazy but $175 iron seems ludicrous...especially when I'm too lazy to iron my own clothes. If it has to be ironed...I won't wear it...or it sits in a pile for a month till I take it to the cleaners and make them iron it for me.

How Steamy! I iron every so often, but my momma would love this.

I don't iron my clothes all that often, but I am a sew-er/ quilter and have been in need of a iron with good steam function for quite a few years now! Will be using it at least twice a week for my craft-y projects. Just about to throw away my iron from college to buy a new one, so this giveaway is super timely!

ohhhh! Rowenta! This would be like ironing in space. Ironing on air. Heaven.

For a guy who does weekly ironing, this Rowenta sure looks like it can handle a large amount easily. The key is steam and 400 steam holes is glorious.

Me please! My iron is currently on the brink.

I iron. Every. Day. The $9.99 Target model I have has to be banged on the ironing board 10 or 20 times just to get to to steam. Weakly. I would already have considered buying a Rowenta if it cost less than a used car.

i put my (leaky) iron to use after my weekly laundry expedition.

my boss would be so happy if i won this haha

The hiss of the steam, the comfy feeling of a warm, wrinkle-free shirt on a cold morning, the back and forth motion and focus on getting out a particular crease can be quite zen. Truly, I would iron everyday, if I could. This all being said, I haven't in almost 8 months due to my loveable puppy (in his teething stage) deciding to eat through my beloved Black and Decker's cord. Luckily it wasn't plugged in, but still...I did not enjoy coming home to my pup lounging on the couch gnawing on what looked like the longest black licorice ever made while the iron itself was mangled in another room. le sigh...

I should iron when I do laundry which is about every 2 weeks. Luckily my husband does not like my ironing skills so I don't have to do his clothes too (he doesn't like my laundry skills either so we do our clothes separately). Unfortunately my husband thought it would be a great idea to iron his circuit boards (yes I said circuit boards, we are both engineers and there are scary chemicals in my garage for making demo boards) with our only working iron (his from college which was practically brand new when we got married 2 years ago, mine was ruined by my starch-loving ROTC roommate). It would be wonderful to have a new powerful iron that is used just for clothes.

I usually try to do all my heavy ironing for the week on Sunday. Although some weeks I'm just plain lazy and do it every morning before leaving for work.

A new high quality iron would definitely help my cause!

I iron every single morning and this woud make my life so much easier! I love Rowenta! It's the best!

I iron once a week: skirts and tea towels. No "dress shirts" after the rust stain of '06 incident.

I iron in my clothes for the whole week on Sundays.

I hate ironing with a passion. Almost as much as taping (painting prep). Almost. But I can't very well show up to work looking like I slept in my clothes! That said, I iron six nights a week. Saturdays are my free days!

I try to iron everything on sundays but usually end up doing a haphazard job 5 minutes before I have to run out the door.

I iron about twice a week, but I use my iron mostly for sewing. I'm working in quilts now, so a good press is essential!

Almost never... my iron is terrible. I promise to iron more often with this one!

For some reason I used to iron everything (t-shirts, jeans, shorts, all of it) when I was young but now I take advantage of actually hanging my clothes out of the dryer. The only things I'll iron now are dress shirts, slacks or anything that won't naturally flatten on the hanger. I prefer ironing right out of the dryer instead of waiting until the morning when I have nothing else to wear and raising my pre-work stress levels.

I iron when I have to...i.e. when all my knit shirts are in the hamper! Maybe if I get this iron, my daughters will do the ironing for me. (yeah right)

Oh, the iron. I iron my daily clothes every morning before I head to school. Unfortunately, the iron is something like 35 years old as it was my mother-in-laws before it was ours. It spits and spits, even when I think all the water is out of it and resort to using a spray bottle. And, last week I accidentally burned a favorite item with the setting on low and just can't bring myself to paying such a high price for a new iron. Help!

I try try try very hard not to iron, but for those rare occasion when there is no choice - this iron would be great!

my closet has a bunch of clothes i never wear because i always forget to iron them, it's terribly sad. i think with this iron i'd be more willing to tackle the stack.

i iron almost every morning. this iron would be great!

My boyfriend takes care of our ironing - it's so wonderful of him, I'd love to contribute the iron to the cause. (about three times a week.)

I used to iron my clothes all the time when I lived in a house with an actual laundry room. Now, in a tiny apartment with no on-site laundry and no iron, I don't do any. Which is tragically ironic, since having to haul my clothes from the laundromat/a friend's house after drying, all my clothes have been terribly wrinkly lately.

As a mom and all around crafty gal I iron every day

I don't iron much but if I had a really nice iron like this one I may apt to iron more.

I iron all the time, I find it very calming! I even iron my sheets! :)

I'm also one to iron primarily when I'm working on a sewing project.

Oy! Seems I'm always ironing in the summer-- at least once a week. I like my cottons and linens nice & crisp. Winter woolens are so much more forgiving! =)

I also iron when working on sewing projects. Or when I have an important meeting. Usually a couple times a week but I'd iron more if I had a better ironing board... and a better iron.

Maybe 2x a month. And I always curse my crappy $10 iron from Target as I do it.

Okay - I don't iron really at all anymore (got my fill when I was in the military) but my partner is a fashion designer and literally busted her favorite iron yesterday! Please - we need it! (Okay, need is a strong word, but you know...)

Yes! My iron is so old and cheap, it is longing to be replaced! Plus, I burned my hand on it this week and I don't want to go back to the old one again!

I would love this, I love quilting which requires a lot of ironing and this would help so much

I hate ironing and I rarely do it, but maybe I will now!

don't iron as much as I should, the iron we have is cruddy and old

Coolguy-wrinkled shirts are SO OVER.

Only this morning did I realize my pants and shirt were wrinkly, and I thought that I looked sad.
Today I see you're giving away an iron! Not just an iron, but a great powerful iron!
I think it's a sign.
I think it's a sign that you should...
PICK ME!
PICK ME!

A couple times a week, mainly before I go to work.

I thought wrinkles were in...oh well guess I need one- out in the work force I need one now!

I iron once a week. I'd iron more if my iron wasn't a cheap piece of junk. I would love to win this.

sign me up, i don't own an iron.

I iron all the time with my old dripping iron. Not only clothes but a good iron is absolutely necessary when you're sewing and trying to make your own clothes. Sigh...I lust after a Rowenta like I lust after a good sewing machine.

I might actually start ironing if I got such a nice iron. I only iron for special occasions. Otherwise I just make sure everything gets hung up promptly.

I usually iron on Sundays after I do the laundry...that way during the week I can just grab my work clothes and go in the morning. Thanks for having such great giveaways!

I iron three times a week. I have a compulsive ironing problem. I love it. Gimme Gimme

yes, please

I iron my clothes once a week, but I iron while I sew all the time. I must have this!

I'm a nut. I even iron my jeans.

Almost never. But I'd like to start!

My husband irons almost every day. Most of my clothes are wash n' wear, but I do use my iron frequently for sewing projects.

I iron my clothes just about everyday. My job calls for neat looking clothes. Ironing is something most people take for granted. I remember when I worked in D.C. My rommates asked, "can you teach me how to put those lines in dress shirts?" My response, "those lines are called creases and of course I can show you." I take a lot of pride in ironing and this prize would be FANTASTIC, to say the least.

I generally iron my clothes Tuesday Wednesday Thursday (for each day only) because I'm traveling and the clothes get quite wrinkled in the suitcase. I want this iron for sewing!

I iron things about once or twice a month.... things like linen that really needs it. Also when I sew. But I have a really crappy iron, and I desperately need a new one.

Well never these days because my iron bit the dust and I haven't replaced it. This could save me from looking like a wrinkled mess.

I iron when necessary as far as my clothes go. As a fashion (almost) designer, I iron several times an hour. This iron looks like a great alternative to an industrial one.

i try to iron monday through friday, if i have to go into work. otherwise, only as necessary for dinners, events, etc. it's a pretty quick painless process and a lot easier to do it as needed rather than in bulk on laundry day.

i personally hate ironing and i try to iron everything for the week in one night. but im thinking my grandmother would LOVE this, she iron even the bed sheets and shes always sewing and making clothes, i nice iron would be lovley.

hillary

Eh - once a week - one every other week during the summer (its too nice outside to iron)

i'd iron my clothes way more if i had this guy to work with!

While I do love the truly wrinkly free button down shirts that I have, unfortunately I only have two, and the rest of my button downs seem to love wrinkles. So whenever I need to wear a button down (as opposed to a knit shirt), I pull it out of the closet, frantically iron in my room and run off to work. I also iron frequently when I sew. I have been borrowing my roommate's iron for the past 4 months as my attempt to clean my iron resulted in somehow killing the iron, but she's moving out, so I'm desperate for a good iron!

never before & while in college, always after

Never. My iron also dribbles like grandpa drinking soup. So I always look like I have slept in my clothes for about a week. I could really use this!!

Too often to be healthy, I'm sure. I really enjoy ironing (immediate gratification - wrinkles, then no wrinkles!) and I think I may wrinkle them on purpose...

I love custom dress shirts. I iron clothes at least once a week.

Unfortunately, everyday. In this starchy business world I work in it's important to look stiff!

i use my iron (poor little abused thing) often! usually when i am making new clothes or things for the house. but with three gals sharing one place, it's often moved and misplaced when people need it for actual clothes.

crossing my fingers!

I iron my kid's clothes every day, my own every other day.
I hate to iron ,but like to look put together.
Thank you for the contest.

I would iron every week if I had one of these...my iron is lame and not steamy and my wrinkled garments lie in wait in my closet.....

I iron my dress shirts every morning with my trusty Rowenta travel iron and my mini Ikea ironing board. I would love love love a "grownup" Rowenta!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, I have to iron almost every day. My clothes require it. But, with this iron, it would be a PLEASURE!!

I iron every morning, but my iron is dying so a new one is on the horizon, how nice to have this one...

We sooo need a new iron - plus I need to iron/steam the velvet curtains I just bought and this would be perfect!

currently my steamy shower is my iron :( that may change in the near future....fingers crossed

I tend to iron once a week - but when I do, I do a lot! Usually my ironing-marathon is when there's an addicting show on tv, usually a mini-marathon of Top Model or Project Runway or something equally silly but oh-so-entertaining!

Currently we are ironless, found a board from the curb, but haven't yet gotten round on buying an iron, so my husband is having a casual friday at work every day now!

Mostly only when I put on something and realize that it is way too wrinkled, and then I have to iron it really fast before I leave the house. But I iron all the time when I'm sewing.

i iron on an as needed basis. usually the prospect of ironing is so boring that i will look for something else to wear rather than the item that need ironing. but once in a while i get in the "ironing zone" set up the board in front of the TV with a good show going or a movie i've already seen but enjoy watching again (16 candles, stuff like that) and then i go to town and can't find enough stuff to iron. i'll start ironing napkins and dishtowels, just cuz i can....

this iron looks like it has great steam!

i iron as rarely as possible. i hate it! i usually only iron when absolutely necessary. i think it's just that my iron is terrible!

If I'm lucky, I iron clothes the evening before work. Most nights I can't get myself to iron after a long day, so lately I iron right before I step out the front door in the morning.

I had a hand held Rowenta in college and loved it, now I use my roommate's not so stellar iron.

I drag out the pre-Cambrian iron only when the rest of the wardrobe is dirty.

Filthy dirty.

Could winning this amazing iron make ironing fun?!?? Will I eventually go door-to-door in my building, offering to iron for my friends and neighbors?

Nahhhhhh.

I would love a new iron. It would encourage me to actually iron things!

My mom irons my clothes...despite her being one state away.

Never, only because I don't even have an iron!! And it's so funny, because I JUST heard about this brand yesterday since my boyfriend's about to by the Rowenta DG-5030, for $150. I wouldn't mind getting this model for free!

I should iron weekly or when I do all the laundry but I don't. I iron as needed which is usually daily.

Is it terrible that I usually just end up sending my wrinkled items to be drycleaned and pressed?? my $20 iron has seen better days...

I iron about every two weeks -- both my clothes and my boyfriend's.

I hate our iron so I rarely use it. I actually can't remember the last time that I ironed something. I'd love to own an iron that I would use!

I IRON EVERY SINGLE DAY!

Only when I can no longer avoid it.

Honestly, once a month or less.

How often do I iron my clothes? Not that often. How often do I use an iron? Quite often! Crafting, you see.

Squirt! Squirt!

Using an old 20 lb., Black & Decker hand-me-down from Grandma, I MUST iron at least 4 times a week.
My clothes and arm deserve better.

I don't iron my clothes. I am a firm believer in the hot-from- the -dryer snap, hang and call it a day school of thought.

The exception (and where I would need this iron) is for certain dressier clothes that don't snap so well.

Actually, since I've moved to AZ I haven't used an iron once. It's so maddeningly casual out here! But I'd still like to have a fancy, schmancy one.

Once a week and even that is still not enough time to get all the clothes that need to be iron done.

my iron burned my clothes so i got rid of it. a new one would be lovely.

I iron my clothes every morning..I'm a terrible folder and don't have enough closet space to hang everything up. I also sew, so I'm ironing for days..

only when the clothes are so wrinkled that you can't even distinguish what piece of clothing it is...

iron? we can't!! (our beloved iron has croaked) so we clip something heavy at the end of it and hang it inside the bathroom when we shower. it's a toss up every time weather it works.

It used to be once a week --- but I've kind slacked off and now it seems like I have to iron something every morning!

never. but maybe i could learn?

Once a week, but I usually change my mind and end up having to iron a whole new set during the week

I don't iron my clothes much anymore, I'm trying to really work on this whole "natural" look, but I still live with my parents and my dad has the habit of ironing his clothes for the week on sunday evenings. I find it endearing.

Maybe once every couple of weeks. Sadly, I opt for the extra 10 minutes of sleep in the morning and deal with the wrinkled clothes.

Clothes, no (and I probably should), but fabric, yes!

Never...but, I'd like to start.

I loathe wrinkles and could really use 400 steamy holes of amazingness.

About once or twice a week, frantically before I leave for work. And I HATE my current iron, which is too light and doesn't get hot enough. So I need this iron.

pick me! pick me!
probably 4x a week. i never iron everything at once, only when i need it.

Every day except Saturday.

Sadly, I have to iron my shirts every day before I go to work. This typically happens before my first cup of coffee and is sometimes accompanied by lots of frustration and profanity.

At least 3x/week, depending on the condition of the clothes. I also iron my hubby's shirts. He doesn't care if they're wrinkled but I can't stand it!

For myself, it's hardly ever. But I do help with ironing my boyfriend's clothes every week.

I'm economizing by not sending shirts out to be laundered. I iron on a semi-weekly basis.

Rarely, but I've only just gotten shirts and pants that need to be ironed. I'm a big boy now!

I worked in a theater costume shop, and loved ironing with the industrial irons there - it was like therapy seeing those wrinkles disappear! I bet that with this iron I will get that same pleasure from ironing. Now, I try to avoid ironing with my budget iron as much as possible.

OOOOO I need an iron!
My ex-boyfriend decided that it was a good idea to take ours (read: mine) to the sail loft he runs to use on sails with industrial glue. Needless to say, its a goner!

I hate ironing (worst chore ever), but I have a load to do every 2 weeks. I handwash all my "dry clean only" clothes and they need to be ironed or steamed to get all the wrinkles out.

We iron about twice a week. When you say it’s recommended by your friends in the fashion industry, does that mean you’ve seen your favorite designers using it on Project Runway?

Why does the comment box at AT always have a problem with copy 'n paste apostrophes?

I'm in a fashion program so I iron DAILY! My iron at home sucks, so I always have to trek to school to use theirs anytime I'm working on a piece. This iron would be a life saver!

Being a general manager of a restaurant, my partner has to look clean and pulled together. So he irons every day, and he's gone through two irons in the past five years.

The last iron I bought for him has a stainless steel surface. Alas, the stainless steel has been stained, and so has our trust. Perhaps this one will renew our faith?

I usually have to break out the ironing board & iron about once every two weeks...when I run out of clean dress shirts and have to launder a few to hold me over until I can get to the dry cleaners.

Um, I own almost nothing that needs to be ironed. I do steam things a lot though.

What I really need a good iron for is my sewing!

Ironing...as little as possible. Whatever I can get away with goes off to the dry cleaners. The rest I do begrudgingly because I hate wrinkles more than I hate ironing.

I iron my clothes about twice a month...but I am an avid crafter and if you sew, ironing is a big part of the process!

I iron a lot of fabric for my quilts!

I iron 2 or 3 times a week. This looks like a terrific iron!

once and a while when somthing is real wrinkled but i need to more often.:)

Because I don't have the greatest iron in the world, I usually only iron my clothes for special occasions. Bet if I owned this iron I would use it much more often. I love crisply pressed clothes.

All the time. I am a law student about to embark on weeks upon weeks of interviews in hope for a job. I cant get my dress shirts and suits pressed regularly and the iron I have right now is not doing the greatest job. Its from the 90s.

Great iron! I iron whenever I need too. Thanks for the contest!!!

I spend about 2 hours every Sunday afternoon doing the weekly ironing for my husband's work clothes, ( he wears business casual) and also for my work clothes, I dont have to dress up but do wear nice tops with jeans that I iron and my iron is on its last leg, the steam part broke awhile ago, and I have to use a mist bottle to spray my clothes and I really would love to win this contest, its such a great prize and very useful too, thanks for the chance to enter, Good luck to all

I might fall in love with this iron if it were to come into my life. I am already head over heels for my canister miele that I got for christmas. I live in a tiny tiny apartment with a teensy closet so more often then not my clothes end up on the floor or chair or bottom of my closet. Short answer: Every day. I iron every day.

Every day. I find ironing oddly satisfying...I think because I can see immediate results. I can't imagine how much fun I'd have, if I actually had a nice iron.

I iron about once every 4 months. This iron looks like a great one!

i used to pay 75 cents per item to a lady to do my ironing. and take pants to cleaners. but with money so tight i am doing the ironing, i wash on delicate cycle and hang dry his pants and shirts. i also now am ironing t-shirts. i like the way they come out so nice. i am saving paying some else to do it. plus i do a lot of thinking and also am creating ideas for projects. i weld and do woodwork and reupholster. i listen to music and it is very relaxing to me. i have even thought on taking on some clients in my neighborhood. so a good iron would be a good incentive to do so and bring in some revenue.
thank you for listening to me.

I iron on as as-needed basis

Wow its wild that no one irons anymore. Im a guy and I iron nearly every other day. I like a good crisp shirt. Usually with some light starch. I know, I know... people tell me to go to the dry cleaners. But I feel that's too harsh on my shirts. Anyways. That's my entry. I hope I win. I'd love that iron.

not often enough... generally about 15 minutes before i have to run out.

I've been wearing wash 'n wear so I don't have to iron at all, but with one like
