If I tilt it for floors and counters is it still the same pressure of steam?

No problem with tilt, the designer used a very clever method to be certain that there was always water until the tank is empty. Mine operates of and on, it makes steam for about 3 min. then quits steaming apparently to get the incoming water hot again. Always did this and less than a month old.

yes., there's also a lever for the steam pressure. this really is one of the best brands for the price.

It did for us, but it only worked for about 30 minutes....did everything we knew and googled to try to get it to work...didn't happen; shopping for another now; love amazon but may buy local so return is easier.

No not at all, but more or less full of something will affect the pressure, so you might have to use more or less charges to obtain your desired pressure.

If you don't aim the AOS away from the counter top it will dampen or leave water. I haven't noticed any dampness on the floor.

mine does too, but if you look closer, there doesn't appear to leaking steam. working well.

The automatic steam level can be regulated with a dial. You can also do a burst of steam with the button. So, yes, the steam can be regulated pretty easily.

yes it has to handle the pressure of the steam think of it as a small steam engine

Oddly, that's exactly how it is supposed to fit. It moves around with the steam being released - so, not to worry - just go ahead and use it!

No, it does not have a continuous steam switch that locks and that was a feature I wanted also. However, it is absolutely NOT a problem. The steam switch has a hair trigger inside the handle right where your index finger is so it is not remotely uncomfortable to use. No contorted fingers or hands to steam other than what's flat on the board and no numb thumbs either (like my last iron). I do a lot of sewing and a generous amount of steam is critical (vertical included). Having thought about this Rowenta for months, I finally purchased it and absolutely love it! Must be 100 steam little vents on the soleplate distributed edge to edge and what a joy not to have to keep filling it. My only regret is that I didn't purchase it sooner.

Not well no. It only tilts about 5-10 degrees down. My only complaint. I have it on my computer tower on my desk. It does in fact tilt down enough to blow on me.

yes. I used nothing but the steam. If it's a tough job, steam on highest pressure makes it easier; when it starts to weaken a bit, let it 'recharge' and it will continue to work well. In 2 or 3 places, I had to go over the grout 2 or 3 times but I had moved into a house where the people never cleaned it, and it was over 10 years old.

Yes, it glides well and steams well, including a burst of steam. The handle design makes it a bit unsteady on the ironing surface so I use a square tile to set it on and have no problems.

mine is cool.The steam is not very big，only can wet a small space.But it is enough to me.

The way the faucet is pictured is as far back as the handle goes. It will the tilt forwards for cold and to the right for water pressure. I hope this information helps!

I waited 4 days...my DW has a vent towards the top by the counter, I was really worried about the steam affecting it, but I didn't have any problems.

If you press the button. It occasionally lets off a little when you are using the steam setting when you put it vertical after doing a section of clothing.

Not at all. I have mine sitting on wood and the 'steam' is ejected upwards and out into the room. Nothing is ever wet.

Yes, it is. Only difference being the Oreck Steam-It All Purpose Steamwand comes with extra stuff. Not sure if it's worth the extra $ or not. If you are just using it for floors, it's a wonderful device. It just didn't preform too well with other things like grout cleaning. It was a real pain.
