ADDITIONAL BENEFITS / HANDLING
From someone requires a suction or blowing top, everyone must decide for themselves. Even my tester, there was initially skeptical. However, she finds the fixation straight z. B. with tablecloths and smooth, straight fabrics, such as dry wipes, very helpful. Apart from the two functions can also be easily switched on or off.
Even when blowing on my ironing board, the support was (which was often criticized here) sufficiently large. Really good I think the stability of the table. The working height can be adjusted to fit even for tall people. The amount is to be adjusted very easily with a 6-fold handle. The lowest working height is 75 centimeters, the maximum working height is 100 centimeters.
The steam iron glides very well over the support. The ironing of shirts also worked flawlessly.
WHY star deduction?
First of all, I would have liked a metal shelf for the iron with such a high quality ironing board. Of course, you know it is indeed on the shelf that you have to turn off the iron upright. But at some point it's probably did happen that the iron tip over once, or that you accidentally but it turns off with the hot side down. Even our current cheap and (unfortunately) wobbly board so had a metal tray.
CABLE
A cable is usually the too short ... because its outlet is mounted very far away ... and the others too long, because it holds, directly near a plug, but each time has to wind up a long cable. The cable to this board is high quality and can be good wrap around the designated place. The length of just 1.54 meters, I think with all the pros and cons but for too short. A length of 2.50 meters, I would have found suitable. Of course, an extension cord can install if necessary.
CONCLUSION
All in all a good -because was safe and stabiles- board. Good additional functions such as
- Blowing function for silk etc.
- Priming for fixing of fabric pieces
- "Neutral" function, common ironing, as a board without this additional benefit.
- Simple 6-fold height adjustment (0.75 to 1 meter working height)
- Slip by four rubber feet
To achieve outlet for the iron to the side and well -
- Metal spring, for the hooking of the cable from the iron
As a result, four stars for the Leifheit 76080 ironing board.
