How to choose?

The system includes three separate household appliances:

• Iron;
• Ironing board;
• Steam generator.

What parameters should be considered when choosing a purchase in a store?

• Design and size. The main requirements for the system are strength and stability. It is also important how much it weighs, because you still have to move the device. The system should be easy to fold and unfold. The height must be adjustable. It is usually fixed either by a smooth or stepwise method.
• The legs in different designs have a different device. Thanks to the U-shaped legs, you can iron while sitting, but the X-shaped legs have more stability, it is more convenient to assemble them.

Important! To prevent scratches on the flooring, rubber tips are placed on the legs. Some models are equipped with wheels in order to make it easier to move the equipment.

Ironing board quality

The surface of the ironing board must be permeable to air. Most often, they use the mesh structure of the base, which tightens the fabric.

Important! In the process of ironing, the working surface is heated to a temperature of 90 degrees, so the moisture entering it quickly evaporates.

Functional

First of all, we determine what we want to get from the board. The rating of ironing systems is headed by models in which there is a vacuum mode and pressurization, the work surface is heated.

Important! Only the most expensive models are equipped with steam boost mode.

If the system will be used in everyday life, there will be enough functions that are provided in the basic configuration. But if you are sewing or knitting, it makes sense to pay attention to additional accessories:

• Boost function With the help of a fan operating in boost mode, an air cushion is formed. This function is used to iron delicate fabrics, lined items and velor clothes.
• Vacuum function. In this case, the tissue is attracted to the working surface. This helps her not to slip, so much less time is spent on smoothing arrows on trousers and pleats on skirts.
• Heated ironing board. This effect allows you to quickly and well iron clothes from both sides. The composition of the working surface includes steel loops treated with cataphoresis. Due to this, they are constantly protected from corrosion.
• Continuous ironing. In this case, it is possible to add water directly during operation. This design is considered safer, since the location of the boiler is in the housing, and there is no plug plug. That is, it is not necessary to poison the pressure after the water runs out. Thanks to this, the system is ready two minutes after switching on.
• Steam boost. A powerful steam generator delivers steam directly to the work surface. In this case, you can not use an iron to smooth woolen sweaters, polyester and silk blouses, scarves, products with beads or applique.

Steam generator power

With a more powerful steam generator, the ironing system has more functions. Much depends on the capacity of the water tank. The larger it is, the more intense the ironing will be. No need to take breaks to dispense water. The steam supply mode can be constant or pulsed, in some models it can be selected.

Iron convenience

Iron is the main tool for ironing, so it should be efficient and safe. All details are of considerable importance:

• handle material;
• its weight;
• sole material;
• the form.

Important! A light iron is easier to handle, but a heavy iron is more effective for ironing dense fabrics. The handle should be ergonomic and comfortable, most often it is made of plastic. The sole material can be anything - steel, aluminum, ceramics, but there must be a good non-stick coating.

Optional accessories:

• A steam brush is used to eliminate unpleasant odors: sweat or tobacco. It can be used both horizontally and vertically.

Important! With the help of steam cleaning nozzles, things can be steamed on weight. In addition, they are used for cleaning upholstered furniture.

• Thanks to the steam gun, various stains and unpleasant odors are removed. Steam has a temperature of 160 degrees, comes out under high pressure, so you can iron things on weight. This is convenient if you need to iron long heavy clothes, jackets, curtains and curtains.
• The purpose of the sleeve, a small board without heating, is quick and easy ironing of trousers or sleeves.
