why does it take so long to heat up

I do not know. I ordered my Rowenta iron a month ago and have not received it yet.

I don't know why - but by the time it does I'm out of the mood and found something else to wear L

I've had this for 6 months and have not noticed any lengthier heat up time from previous irons I've used in the past. That said, I typically do a big batch of clothes at a time as opposed to ironing a piece of clothing while getting ready to go somewhere where I'm more sensitive to time. But its on part with other Irons I've used.

Yours is defective, I would guess. Mine is ready to go within minutes of plugging in. I think mine heats up fast.

sounds like your heat is to high. I set mine at 5 out of 10 on an 1100 watt micro for 15min let sit for 5 min in micro then take out oven vent for 5 min before I open to serv

after you close the lid and turn it on it takes a few minutes to seal when it heats up. If still not sealing you need a new rubber o-ring, or try cleaning it and coat with vegetable oil

I have only had it up to 130F but it should go higher. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to heat to 130F with surrounding room temperature around 60F.

it should take about 30 seconds to get hot not warm but hot there is a setting a little round rotating sleeve you turn it one direction or the other and the handle should pump while you're moving the mark if its not producing any steam send the product back

I heats it up pretty quickly, less than10 mins. We've used one of these for years and it works great.

I had a set if rollers for about 20 years and they took about 5-6 minutes to heat up. These are much faster probably 1-2 minutes at its slowest and probably faster but I never really timed them.

You want to heat it slower than that.. It took me around 30 to 45 minutes on a propane burner. Then it must be reheated when it thickens.

It takes about the same time as refilling a teakettle and waiting for it to boil. We keep our temperature to hand washing comfort so it extends the life of the heater.

Generally it only takes a couple minutes to heat up, to get to full heat maybe up to 5 minutes. So if you need it for a specific amount of time that may need to be added to how long you put as the timer.

It does warm up slowly, but I think that is part of its design secret in holding a temperature accurately and for an extended period of time. We have used this unit for chocolate sauce for ice cream sundae's and for butter. You can force the heat-up by using hot water in the unit before heating. We have been extremely pleased with the simplicity and operation of this unit. I hope this response helps.

It takes a meal about 40 minutes to heat up. I like it because I spend most of my time in my pickup and often out in no man's land. It's nice to have a hot meal in the cold weather.

You may be holding the nozzle too close to the thing you're trying to heat up. I can run mine for minutes at a time holding it about an inch from the work piece.

Haven't checked on times, sorry. That burner is HOT, though, would not take long. You need to be careful of aluminum pans with thin bottoms, it will warp them and if you let them boil dry it will burn through, I am told.

It takes about 10 minutes if the towel is dry to warm up. If you have s do towel it takes longer depending on hod damp it ox. I would suggest a dry towel to start with.

Depends on how full it is. If you're not cooking a lot, or if the item is fluffy (like a bunch of kale) it doesn't take long for the steam to bring it up to pressure. But if you're cooking a lot of dense, cold ingredients, like stew or soup, it may take it a while longer to heat everything up. (It also takes it a while longer to cool down before you can open it!)But it's a great pressure cooker. :)

I normally set mine on the highest heat and it takes less than two minutes to heat up.
