Guidelines on Buying Ironing Board Covers

You were scanning your new shopping list, and you came across ironing board covers. Didn’t you just bought one a month ago? You decided to inspect the said iron board cover, and it’s already busted.

What exactly should you look for in buying an ironing board cover that will definitely last?

Check the fabric quality.

Shop around for an ironing board cover that is made of 100 percent heavy-duty cotton. The fabric used should have 60/60 weave fabric, which means that in every square inch, there are 60 threads going in each direction. Ironing Board Covers that have 60/60 weave fabric will last longer compared to those covers that don’t.

It must be Dacron padded.

Make sure that the iron board cover you are planning to purchase is Dacron padded. Dacron is made from a combination of polyester and wool, which allows the cover to retain heat. Through this, it will make your ironing a little easier and faster since heat is transferred rapidly to the item ironed.

Dacron pads also absorb moisture better than material commonly used in covers like foam and felt. It does not depreciate easily particularly when there are accidental fluid spills. These pads can also assure you of a flat, smooth, and even surface when ironing. You don’t have to use felts and single-layer covers since the Dacron pad is firmly attached to the iron board cover.

It should be double-sided Ironing Board Covers .

Be on the lookout for double-sided ironing board covers or the reversible ones. If one side is already worn out, one can simply turn the cover and continue his or her ironing with the other side. This prolongs the life of the cover as both sides are used evenly.

Double-sided iron board covers are particularly convenient for people who are into arts and crafts. They can do their artwork such as patchworks on one side and their regular household ironing on the other side.

It should be easy to fit.

Avoid Ironing Board Covers that have ties or clips as this will make the cover move when one is ironing, which could be frustrating. Buy those that use an elastic band that is thick and of industrial strength so that the cover will stay in place when one does some ironing.

The cover should be machine wash safe.

Iron board covers should be machine wash safe and can be placed in the dryer particularly if the cover gets dirty or if an accidental spill leaves a mark.
