Ok, I've gone back and search oodles of post from a few years back all the way up to July 2006 and I have a question or two. I understand the part of 50 p.s.i. when the online sites and eBay describe these irons. But what I don't understand is 3.5 bars, 3.0 bars, etc. What are they referring to when giving this information?
I have a White steam generator iron which is about 10 years old. It was ok, not the greatest but it has decided it wants to put out a paltry amount of steam now and it's getting on my last nerve. I've always used distilled water in it, so that shouldn't be a problem. This iron is no longer made I found out when calling the company about a question back in the summer.
Can someone answer this 'bar' question or direct me to a site that would have the answer? I've been looking on eBay and Allbrands at the Reliable and Rowenta steam generator irons. I'm leaning toward Reliable. It's not that I do mountains of ironing but I hate an iron that I have to fill with water after every two blouses!
