Sorry Philips this is a flop! Good on paper but.... The wings are more of a hindrance than a help. Whilst i thought the extra wide board would be great, you cannot put anything of a normal size ie.. t-shirts over the end because you stretch the ****...

I like the board but have a few minor observations that could be addressed. The padding is too thin, I paid $169 ( I know the good guys had it cheaper}. For the price I feel it should be thicker and the release latch ......what is up with that!!! It...

is, I even have to put the ironing board outside to dry out properly. My concern is that considering the cost of this ironing board it is not going to last any longer than a cheap one from Kmart. This ironing board is supposed to accommodate the Steam...

The board looks good but for something so expensive I want something I can use comfortably. My two main issues are the uneven legs so it wobbles when ironing and the worst part is the opening and closing mechanism. After 10 minutes of struggling to...

n them, particularly anything elasticated such as shorts, even T-shirts catch on them, they are riveted on so cannot be removed. On the good side, the height is very good. The board is very sturdy. The width of the board is great. On the bad side, hard...

My board also slants quite a lot to the side when my steam generator is on it - AND leaks water everywhere after ironing only a few items. Customer service representative had apparently never heard of this issue, (strange when several people have also...

I agree with the previous reviewer. I have puddles on the floor from the steam going through the board. The must smell literally takes your breath away. Absolutely dreadful. Zero stars
