TIVIT Ironing Board Covers - 49 x 18 Heat Reflective Advanced CeramicTek Ironing Board Cover - 5 Layer Padded Cover Ceramic Coated with Aluminum Inner Layer Reflecting Steam/Heat, Made in Italy

Looks sturdy and the pad effect is very good, won"t show button marks.

Has heat reflective properties which almost iron the other side

Fits my extra-wide ironing board perfectly, smooths out nicely, makes ironing much faster and easier. The color is a vast improvement over the usual dull, boring covers.

The manufacturer seems very proud of their product and makes some strong claims: "Most Innovative Ironing Cover Design - 100% Cotton top Layer that performs at a higher level then any cover on the market today! Turn any ironing board into an exceptional ironing/steaming station with this innovative cover design. The Aluminum lining quickly reacts to heat, reflecting the heat back at an unmatched rate, while evaporating any moisture collected back up through your garments for the most efficient ironing." The ironing board cover lives up to their claims.My Homz ironing board has a metal surface with a grid pattern. The pad that came with it is too thin, and dark clothes pick up the grid pattern when ironing. I ordered the CottonTek Pro to solve that problem and I am very happy with it. The cover fits well, was not hard to install, doesn't interfere with raising or lowering the legs, and provides an excellent surface for ironing.Once in a while you buy something that is truly better than its competition. (My 1UpUSA bike rack comes to mind). This ironing board cover is one of those items. And, they shipped promptly and it arrived much sooner than predicted, as I am in Southern California and they ship from Irvine, 20 miles away.

This cover helps my ironing come out so well pressed and no markings from ironing board at all.

THe only reason I haven't given a five is because I have yet to iron, so I don't know how fabric glides on surface. However, I do have a remedy for the person who noted that the packaging caused wrinkles. I put it on, adjusted it with the velcro and wonderful bungee cord, SPRAYED it with water to dampen and hand smoothed it. The finish is perfectly flat and unwrinkled now! The color is more ORANGE than red which was a slight disappointment but at least it is a happy color for the chore.

The cover was smaller than I thought. It barely covered my 15 inch wide board.

I truly needed a more “commercial” cover as I sew items to sell online. This was pricey, but I believe will ultimately hold up to more heavy use.

Facile pour ajuster.
