Vileda Total Reflect Ironing Board
It is well worth investing in a decent ironing board, as I find the with the heaper boards the cover often comes off and the boards are difficult to put up, which makes it harder to iron quickly and well. However, after using the Vileda Total Reflect Ironing Board I can say it is worth every penny of the £64.99 price tag! Not only does the cotton cover fit perfectly and the metallised foil layer on the underside reflects heat and steam back into your laundry, helping removed creases quicker and even better, this reduces your ironing time – hooray!
The foam layer under the cover also creates a smooth ironing surface and the board is bigger than some which makes it easier to iron sheets or bigger items of clothing! The cover also prevents condensation onto your board and water droplets onto the floor. They really have thought of everything, as it is easy to adjust the height and the pull and life mechanism is easy to use! This wonderful board makes ironing easy and for someone who really hates ironing this board helped me enjoy it, what can be better than that!

You can whizz through your ironing pile with this Cordless One Temperature Iron, no cord and no temperature dial, is a time saver. This large iron is surprisingly light so you can get through clothes faster and with easier. It has been designed to deliver the optimum heat to safely use on all iron-able fabrics and I am totally in love with this iron! With an impressive 2600W, the Cordless One Temperature Iron really does provide a powerful performance.
I was worried about having only one temperature, but it works perfectly well on all fabrics without damaging them. It heats up quickly and recharges in 6 seconds while in use. The base lights red when charging and turns green when it’s ready to use.
The fact it doesn’t have a cord makes ironing so much easier. The water tank is a good size and steam function works brilliantly without leaks or dribbles of water.

Russell Hobbs Freedom Cordless Iron
Cut the ties of conventional ironing with the Russell Hobbs Freedom Cordless Iron. This innovative iron displays a smart light ring which indicates when ready to use. I love that there are no restrictions on movements that you get with a corded. The base has a light which turns red and beeps when the iron needs recharging and turns green when it’s ready to use. The fast recharge means there’s no waiting around, by the time I’ve smoothed out the garment the iron is ready to be used.
A smooth ceramic soleplate will glide through stubborn creases without snagging, and the variable temperature control allows you to select the optimum heat for the fabric you’re ironing. If you need to tackle tougher creases in linen, denim or canvas, the iron will deliver a powerful 135g burst of steam and the 40g continuous shot of steam will target creases in lighter fabrics, such as cotton or silk.
The adjustable steam function provides adequate steam for getting out deep creases and there’s also a spray function. It also cools down quickly which is an added bonus around children and pets. It’s easy to store without taking up too much space. The Freedom Cordless Iron is a fantastic product for a very reasonable price!
