The Rowenta Professional Ironing Board was designed to be used by the pro's. By pro's I mean, someone who irons a lot, maybe even everyday. Due to the advanced design and technology incorporated into this board, it really is stable and durable enough to be used in a commercial environment.
Rowenta is one of the world's largest manufacturers of steam irons, it only stands to reason that they would add ironing boards to their product line. But not just your standard iron board, the Rowenta Professional Ironing Board has 3 major features that you should know about.
Feature #1 - Reinforced Stability!
With the Professional Ironing Board, Rowenta has taken the stability of the iron board a step further. They have reinforced the leg structure with a third supporting leg. This will give you the added stability to iron those large items that are so awkward and be able to support the heavier items we sometimes have to iron.
The leg structure is designed in the shape of a T. The feet are wider than the standard iron board and are arched for even more stability. The ends of the feet are capped with non-slip grips so don't have to worry about it moving around.
Feature #2 - Ironing Surface Size!
Having a larger ironing surface is great for any ironing project. The ironing surface of the Rowenta Professional Ironing Board measures 18" x 49", which is considerably larger than a standard board. This comes in handy when ironing large items as well as your everyday ironing.
Another size feature is the height adjustment. You can adjust up to 39" which really helps keep your back straight instead of having to bend forward to iron. If you are a tall person, this is perfect for you.
Feature #3 - Iron Rest and Laundry Rack!
You probably never considered an iron rest when shopping for an ironing board. I have to admit, it is one of my favorite features. Safety is the number one reason I like it. I don't have to worry about the iron getting knocked off the board like I did when it was standing upright. The iron actually lays on the iron rest at a slight angle which is also great for the wrist. It eliminates the constant up and down motion
of the wrist, which can cause your wrist to ache.
By using the iron rest, you have also freed up the largest part of ironing surface at the end of your iron board. This gives you much more ironing surface.
The Rowenta Professional Ironing Board also comes with a laundry rack which is located under the board attached to the leg structure.
