Brabantia 2mm Built-in-Foam Ironing Board Cover (D Board/Ecru) Heat-Resistant, Non-Slip, Cord Fastener

Great replacement for an old original cover (must have been 20 years old. Fitting was quite easy though was surprised to have to cut the felt to size. Was quite thick needed a decent set of scissors.

Not very thick and a bit basic but does the job easy to fit and good for the price

Great product second purchase

Nice and thick, fits my board well.

Very happy with this; really good quality. It's easily fitted: it's got a strong drawstring all the way around (including round the end that fits over the head of the board) and the string ends are pulled tight at the toe end. There's a nifty little plastic doodah that you wind the trailing ends of the strings around, and it tucks inside the cover under the toe to keep them out of the way. In addition to this there's a rubber tension strip that fits under the centre of the board to keep the cover taut. I fitted mine and it still had a few packing creases in it, so I ironed them out - however this made it a bit looser so I had to re-tighten the drawstring. Not a big job, but had I thought about it beforehand I could have ironed it before fitting and it would have been more straightforward! The quality of the fabric and the stitching of the drawstring tape seems absolutely fine. Time will tell as to its durability - my previous Minky cover lasted less than a year before disintegrating - but initial impressions are good. Update June 2018: 18 months later and still going strong! No problems with this cover at all, I haven't needed to adjust it or refit it, and it's still as pristine as the day I first fitted it. Would definitely recommend. Update Feb 2020: the cover still looks like new :)

Have used a Brabantia board for many years and have gone through multiple covers. I would prefer the foam backing to be thicker but that's my only real criticism. You should definitely regard them as a consumable - I typically get about 4 - 6 months use before the cover begins to fail. Easy to fit and remains firmly in position once the draw cord is secured. I usually fit over the top of my most recent cover to compensate for the thin foam. Unfortunately now only available in a randomly picked pattern so be prepared to be tolerant of the actual pattern received! Obviously, the perfect choice for a Brabantia board - recommended.

The problem is not with the Brabantia 2mm reflective cover, but the lack of information from the Amazon site that it is just a top layer and needs a sound base layer underneath.

Fits well enough and does the job but the size D "grey" version, is just a thin metalized perforated cover not a patterned cover as pictured. Amazon need to update description of this item, that said it looks quite smart after fitting!

As expected, it is good product and comfortable.

Compré este producto en 2019. Me duró aproximadamente 5 años y medio de uso. Me voy a pedir otro este año. Lo recomiendo bastante.

This is a bit of an expensive ironing board cover, but it is made of exceptional quality, and once you get working with it, you can easily see the level of craftsmanship put into it. This is not a run-of-the-mill cover that you'll see in retail stores, but is rather an extremely well designed cover that should last a very long time while helping improve the ironing process. The cover is made of a semi-reflective outer surface with a substrate beneath it to give the cover a bit of body. The outer layer is designed to efficiently reflect the heat of the iron while also making the smoothness of the surface nice for sliding both the iron and fabric across it. The cover affixes to the board by use of a nylon string that runs around the perimeter of the cover. You simply lay the cover over the board, then gently pull the string until the entire cover is taught. You then use a supplied clasp to secure the strings in a taught position, and then use the supplied rubber strap to further secure the center of the the cover. It's not difficult at all, and results in a nice fit. You just have to make sure you are ordering the correct size for your board (I measured mine with a tape measure and then selected the model with the appropriate size for my board). One thing that you need to be aware of is that this cover is not sufficient to be used on its own. It is too thin and has insufficient padding to work alone. You will need to use a felt or similar pad beneath this cover. If you need a new one, Brabantia also makes a really great quality viscose pad that is specifically designed to work in concert with this cover. I would be tempted to give this four stars because the price is a bit high (especially when you add in the pad, if you need a new one), but the quality and performance of this item make it a five star rating in my thinking. (I had the same feelings for the pad, as well, and came to the same conclusion). Highly recommended.

Think of razor blades. You buy the razor and then have to keep buying razor blades. The same with this Brabantia ironing board cover. I do not excessively iron (just for a couple not a family) and only about two items per week are on linen (very hot) temperature. You can see the deterioration in this product after one month of use. Look closely. I buy replacements at about one per month because I cannot find anything that lasts. Since the material science for this is sufficiently advanced, I conclude that developing products "Designed for Failing" is a strategic choice by Brabantia.

Se siente bien los materiales y al parecer la sujeción que tiene es buena, pero la verdad la sentí muy delgada. Así que no me dio confianza y la cambie. Pero si no tienes problemas con eso, seguro te funcionara muy bien.
