Frequently Asked Questions

What to Consider When Choosing Ironing Boards?


Size and space: measure the area where the board will live. A full‑size board typically ranges from 90 to 125 cm in length and 30–45 cm wide, while compact and travel boards are shorter and narrower for tight spaces.


Surface and padding: look for a sturdy board surface with adequate padding (often 4–10 mm) and a heat‑resistant, easy‑to‑clean cover. A high‑quality cover helps glide fabrics smoothly and reduces sheen or scorch marks.


Height adjustability: choose an ironing board with adjustable legs or a telescopic stem so you can set the ideal working height, reducing back and shoulder strain during longer ironing sessions.


Stability and safety: a wide, sturdy base and secure locking legs keep the board steady while you press. Anti‑slip feet prevent movement on slick floors and protect your surfaces.


Iron rest and accessories: many boards offer a built‑in iron rest, storage clips for cables, or a garment rack. These features add convenience, especially if you frequently iron shirts, trousers, or delicate fabrics.


Material and durability: metal frames are common for durability, while wooden or composite boards offer stable heat distribution. Consider moisture resistance in humid spaces like laundry rooms.


What Are the Most Popular Types of Ironing Boards?


Freestanding ironing boards are the classic choice, offering a long, stable surface with adjustable height for home use and even family members. They’re ideal for dedicated laundry rooms or utility areas where space allows.


Wall‑mounted ironing boards save space in small apartments or bathrooms. They fold down when in use and tuck away neatly, keeping floors clear and creating a tidy look.


Compact or mini ironing boards are designed for travel, dorm rooms, or packing for holidays. Lightweight and foldable, they fit in suitcases or carry bags and still handle everyday garments.


Over‑door or corner boards offer flexible placement in kitchens or laundry nooks where wall space may be limited. They provide a practical solution without bulky frames.


Heated or electric ironing centers (where available) combine a board with a power‑controlled panel and built‑in iron rest for faster crease removal, especially on heavy fabrics like denim and linen.


How to Maintain Ironing Boards?


Regular cleaning ensures a smooth ironing surface. Wipe the board with a damp cloth and a mild detergent to remove dust, fabric fibers, and any residue from detergents or starches.


Check the cover and padding periodically. If you notice scorch marks, thinning padding, or creases in the cover, replace the cover or the entire board to maintain optimal ironing results.


Tighten screws and ensure legs lock properly after each use. Store the board in a dry area to prevent rust on the metal frame and to prolong its life.


Keep your ironing board ready for everyday use with our range of Ironing Boards, including folding ironing boards and wall-mounted ironing boards, all designed for long‑term durability and steady performance.


What Are the Best Brands for Ironing Boards?


Look for brands that blend stability, easy assembly, and quality materials. Reputable names in household care often offer interchangeable covers and padding, wide legs for stability, and rust‑resistant frames. Key options include popular, well‑reviewed lines from established homeware manufacturers, known for reliable customer service and durable construction.


When shopping on Wowcher UK, you’ll also find accessories and replacements such as ironing board covers, padding, and cover clips to extend the life of your board and keep it performing at its best.


How to Choose the Right Ironing Board for Your Home?


Assess your available space, daily ironing load, and preferred features. If you iron delicate fabrics often, a board with a high‑quality heat‑resistant cover and ample padding will be essential. For busy households, a wall‑mounted or foldable model can save space while still delivering solid performance.


Consider multifunction options like an iron rest, cord management, and garment clips that help you keep shirts and blouses wrinkle‑free more efficiently. And remember, deals on Ironing Boards on Wowcher UK can bring premium functionality within reach, whether you need a compact travel board or a full‑size freestanding model.


Q&A: Ironing Boards for Everyday Garment Care


What size ironing board should I choose for a small apartment?

For limited spaces, select a compact or travel ironing board. Look for boards around 60–90 cm in length with a width of about 25–30 cm when folded. A wall‑mounted board is an excellent option in a tight layout because it folds away vertically and frees up floor space. Ensure you can reach a comfortable working height—often 70–90 cm tall when opened—to reduce bending and strain during ironing sessions.


Are wall-mounted ironing boards as stable as freestanding ones?

Yes, when properly installed. Choose a wall‑mounted board that is securely anchored into wall studs or a solid mounting surface. A good mounting kit, a robust hinge system, and anti‑slip feet on the bottom help maintain stability during use. If you regularly press heavy garments, verify the board’s load rating and consider a model with a locking mechanism to keep it steady while you work.


Do ironing boards come with heat‑resistant covers, and how long do they last?

Many ironing boards include heat‑resistant covers designed to withstand the heat from steam irons. A quality cover typically lasts 1–3 years with regular use, depending on fabric type and care. Signs it’s time to replace include scorch marks, thinning padding, fabric snagging, or persistent wrinkles on the surface. Replacing the cover keeps fabrics gliding smoothly and maintains ironing efficiency.


Can I use a steam iron with an ironing board, and do I need an integrated iron rest?

Yes, a standard steam iron works perfectly with most ironing boards. Choose a board with a heat‑resistant cover and adequate padding to handle moisture from steam. An integrated iron rest is convenient, especially if you iron frequently, but it’s not essential. If you don’t need it, many freestanding boards offer a detachable iron rest or space on the edge to place the iron safely when not in use.


What features should I look for in a travel or compact ironing board?

Prioritize portability and storage. Look for lightweight frames, compact folded dimensions, a stable locking mechanism, and a heat‑resistant, easy‑to‑clean cover. A carrying bag or strap is a nice bonus for frequent travellers. If you still need the board for occasional at‑home use, ensure the board height is adjustable and the legs fold flat without protruding parts.
