HOW TO CHOOSE A GOOD IRONING BOARD
When buying an ironing board, it is important to pay attention to several factors. We will take the liberty of giving you some tips on how to choose the right ironing board for you.
To make the right choice, you need to consider some important factors related to the functionality of the ironing board: weight and mobility, design, size, functionality.
Whether you live in a big house or a smaller apartment, the weight of your ironing board is always important. The construction of the board should be light and easy to carry. When we say “light” we don’t mean too light. This will play a bad joke on you while ironing, because it is possible that the board will not be stable due to the construction being too light. This will make the ironing process more difficult instead of easier. Choose boards with a medium weight.
To be as convenient as possible, the ironing board should be tailored to your needs. Here you need to consider the size of the ironing surface. Boards measuring 110 x 120 x 30-38cm are extremely suitable for smaller apartments. This is one of the most functional options with compact dimensions. Modern ironing boards are available in sizes of 140 x 148 x 40-45cm. Although they are a little larger and would be more difficult to store in your home, boards of this size are much more functional. They can easily iron larger sheets, pillowcases, tablecloths, bed linen and much more. Boards of this size are also even more stable.
Quality ironing boards have a sturdy metal grid covered in cotton fabric in various patterns. Cheaper ones are indeed boards, but made not of solid wood, but of glued sawdust, similar to cork school boards.
For good stability and functionality of the ironing board, the legs also play an important role. The most popular are those with aluminum and metal legs. They should have a height adjustment function. The correct height is of fundamental importance. If the board is too low, it is possible to experience lower back pain from the constant tension. If it is too high, the movements of the hand with which you hold the iron will not be free.
The additional functions and conveniences that ironing boards offer are a compliment to the one who uses them. Ironing boards with a heat-resistant iron stand create a truly great comfort. Thanks to the iron stand, you will not have to worry that the iron will fall and burn your clothes or the board. Usually, these boards are equipped with a cable holder. It prevents the iron's power cord from twisting and keeps it away from hot surfaces.
The ironing boards you will find with us are from the brands VILEDA, GRANIT, METALTEX and others.
