Ironing on a towel on a bed is slow, bad for the clothes and worse for the back. A proper floor-standing board at 85cm working height puts the work at hip level, where you can press with weight instead of reaching down — which is why a real board halves the time a pile of shirts takes. The thickened padded panel gives the resistance that lets an iron press a crease flat, and the heat resistant construction handles a hot plate without scorching through. Board surface is 110 x 33cm, opening to 130 x 33 x 85cm overall, and it folds flat to store behind a door or in a cupboard between uses.

Buying guide
Set the board up on a level floor and check the frame is locked before putting weight on it. Iron on the padded surface rather than pressing hard against the frame beneath, and let the cover cool before folding the board away — a hot cover folded immediately will hold creases and can scorch. Replace the cover when it becomes shiny or scorched, since a glazed surface transfers marks to clothes. Keep the board dry, and store it folded flat rather than leaning at an angle where the legs can spring open unexpectedly.
How it compares
Against ironing on a bed or a table, a proper board is faster, safer and far better for clothes. Against a tabletop board, floor-standing means you work at a comfortable height rather than stooping. For occasional touch-ups only, a small tabletop board stores in less space.
