Brabantia Wide Ironing Board, Denim Blue

I didn’t think I would ever be at a point in my life where I was reviewing an ironing board. However, working the sort of job that I do and being a large man, both in height and girth, a standard size ironing board wasn’t doing anything but making me frustrated and hurting my lower back. I decided to take a chance put down $120, to give this extra large ironing board a shot. It is incredible. My lower back doesn’t hurt. I can iron at it for an hour or two hours and it doesn’t hurt. I can put my spray starch on the actual ironing board while I iron, and the starch doesn’t fall off and hit the floor, or while I adjust my pants, the iron doesn’t wobble and fall off and hit the floor. It is incredibly sturdy. It’s big, it’s heavy, and unless you are doing something you probably shouldn’t be doing on an ironing board, my guess is it will hold up. I couldn’t be happier with it and I strongly recommend it to any man or woman needing to iron large articles of clothing that are becoming incredibly frustrated with a standard sized ironing board.

Bastante resistente y robusta.

This is a nice sturdy ironing board. The mechanism is a little awkward but it raises and lowers well. I thought the iron rest would be a convenience and it is to a degree. The only problem is that my iron cord keep wanting to get stuck between the iron rest and the end of the ironing board, which I had not anticipated. The wire rod that I had added to my last ironing board would have been ideal since it held my cord up and out of the way. Alas, it went with the old ironing board so I will have to look for another. I replaced the original cover since it wore out pretty rapidly and had not anticipated that I would need an extra large cover, but that is okay. I do like the ironing board quite well.

This ironing board is wide enough for steaming suit pants and sport coats easily. It’s sturdy and comfortable to iron on while the height adjustment allows you to get it up very high or super low. Overall the quality is far greater than those ironing boards at Walmart, Target or Lowes. It’s a great and smart choice and it should last you a very long time.

It is a great sturdy board. One of the few that goes high enough for me!
