If you’ve spent any amount of time looking through the different ironing boards offered on the market, you’ve likely noticed that today’s ironing boards look different than those we saw on the market fifty years ago. And, as it turns out, the Brabantia Ironing Board is no exception. The first thing you’ll notice about the ironing board in question is that it comes with a metal rack on which you may place your iron. While this has become a standard feature in quality ironing boards, it certainly hasn’t become standard in all ironing boards. This gives us a great indication of its high level of quality right off the bat.

The Brabantia Ironing Board also comes with a rather wide frame. This is great, being that it gives you a much larger degree of maneuverability. It’s rare you here of an ironing board being too short, but it’s not at all uncommon that you hear someone complaining of an ironing board’s width. It’s nice to see a manufacturer offer a simple solution to a longstanding problem. Lastly, it comes with a safety feature which ensures the board doesn’t collapse when its legs are tampered with. Although this might not sound very necessary, things are different when children or pets are added into the equation. If kids or animals are a concern, such a safety feature should be considered downright mandatory.
