Conventional ironing boards are notorioulsy cumbersome household items. When removing from cupboards, their legs and feet can easily snag on door frames or other items and they can be awkward and noisy to set up. Glide Plus is a revolutionary, full-size ironing board with a unique stand design that makes it more compact when stored than a conventional ironing board. When folded, the innovative leg mechansim means both sets of feet nest neatly together at one end of the board, making it less likely to snag when removing from storage. A large handle on the back makes carrying easy and this also doubles as a secure hanging point when used with the specially designed bracket (included), meaning it can be stored off the floor on the back of a door or inside a cupboard. With Glide Plus, set-up is smoother too. Simply grip the handle, press the release lever on the underside and swing the tip of the board up to horizontal. The height can then be adjusted to seven different positions using the release lever, from 84 cm (33 inches) up to a maximum of 99 cm (39 inches). Glide Plus comes with an advanced, multi-layer cover with DripShield™ Technology that's been designed to cope with large volumes of ironing or for use with steam generator irons. Firstly, it has a 100% cotton top-layer with a built-in, heat-resistant silicone iron rest. Beneath that is a 3D spacer mesh, which allows steam to flow freely across the board making ironing quicker and reduces damp spots. Next, a highly-absorbant padded felt layer spreads moisture rapidly whilst a waterproof but breathable base layer below prevents drips and allows excess moisture to wick away. With it's cord toggle, the cover is also quick and easy to change. Replacement covers available. Board size 130 x 38 cm (51.1 x 14.9 inches). Ironing surface 108 x 38 cm (42.5 x 14.9 inches). Closed (incl. legs) H136 x W38 x D8.5 cm (H53.5 x W15 x D3.3 inches). Frame guaranteed for 3 years against manufacturing defects.
