 Problems November 18, 2008

I like this ironing board, but right away there were problems.
Built-in Extension cord: First of all, the extension cord had some sort of black grease inside the holes. This smoked and smelled the first 20 times I used it. I became concerned about what chemicals I might be inhaling, especially since I have severe asthma. Also, during that time the iron plug kept falling out. That has stopped, but now when I pull the extension cored out of the wall, sparks fly, which concerns me!
Cover: Additionally, the cover is about 1/4" too small all the way around. It doesn't always stay on, and to reposition it takes two people, as it has to be stretched. It becomes virtually unusable after one washing. Then the cord that goes around the cover and has to be tightened hangs down, and my cats played with it for one minute and managed to snag it, whereupon it came unraveled and could not be controlled, so now it is way too long and not nearly as strong. I am in the process of ordering another cover, and also adding on to the one that came with the board.
Sharp edges: I cut myself on the edges around the end where one can hang clothes. I had to cover the sharp edges with masking tape.
As others have said, this is a heavy ironing board, and so was too heavy to send back. It is great for stability. But it takes some muscle and tinkering to get used to.
 Who spends so much on an ironing board? November 14, 2008

I'll tell you...someone who's tired of accidentally bumping into the ironing board and the iron tumbling down. Or worse, when you're ironing, and a garment gets caught on the ironing board and the same result...the ironing tumbling to the floor. The thought of a child running into the ironing board and having the iron fall onto them was enough to convince me to find a sturdy board. I will *never* buy a cheap ironing board again.
The fact that it's extra wide is cool, and that the height is adjustable is cool at well. It has a shelf underneath to put folded ironed garments, and the iron stand holds hangers. The day I received this, I ironed 10 pairs of pants and had them hanging from the iron stand, and it didn't tip the board or compromise the iron stand.
But this thing is heavy. I'm someone who needs to put away my ironing board, so this will probably at times feel like lead. But if that's the price I'll have to pay to not have a flimsy ironing board, so be it.
I considered buying the IB-6300, but the only difference I noted was that the 6300 had wheels and had a power supply on the iron. But a considerable amount more for cheap wheels and an extension cord didn't justify the price difference. So after I received this, I went to my garage, and found a 3prong extension cord and fashioned it to the ironing board. Problem solved! And I saved myself oodles of money.
Since I bought this on sale here, I think it's a fantastic investment. Not for the sake of having a "great product", because other ironing boards do function quite well as ironing board, but for the safety factor. Those cheap ironing boards are simply not safe around children or feet.

When my ironing board broke, the search for a comparable replacement began. The ideal board needed to be extra wide (most are only 14"),
extra tall (I'm 5'10"), and sturdy enough to stand up to a lot of use (My kids wear dress shirts/blouses to school and I'm forever ironing, or so it seeems!) This Rowenta model seemed ideal, and all the positive reviews it got were convincing. But my past experiences with Rowenta irons had not been very positive, so I figured that this model was probably more hype than substance. After all, what could possibly justify such a hefty price tag? Boy, was I pleasantly surprised! This ironing board is worth every penny! The construction is solid and intelligently designed. It's sturdy and the height adjusts easily and smoothly. It comes with a 10 year warranty, which it just might outlast. Truly a quality product and highly recommended!

After reading the reviews and coming to terms with the inflated price for an ironing board, I have to say I am very happy I took the plunge.
I've had problems with other cheap ironing boards collapsing or not staying up (we've actually welded one back into place!), leaving 'diamond' marks on items even though I put another towel down for padding, the excessive wobbling, losing the rubber thingy's on the feet so it wont stand correctly and will undoubtedly scratch the floor! I got fed up.
This ironing board makes the chore of ironing a bit less annoying. It is generous in size! I have plenty of room to put shirts, pants, sheets..whatever on the board and not have to make too many additional adjustments in order for the item being ironed to fit. It's very sturdy. No wobbling regardless of whether I set the board up on carpet or tiled floor.
The adjustment mechanism is very easy to push and it allows the board to rise up quite high for taller people and I can also adjust it for a lower setting when I need to sit and iron. (I am a quilter, those who also suffer from this addiction will understand.) :0)
The cover is thick and easily cleaned.
There is lots of room for not only empty hangers but hanging items when done or even stacking folded items on the shelf underneath. The iron holder is large and handy for setting a hot iron on inbetween items.
The board itself is a bit on the heavy side, but I justify that for the high quality of construction.
If you can get over the huge hurdle of paying the price asked of the Rowenta Pro Ironing Board, I highly recommend it as it will probably be the last one you will ever need to purchase!
