Ironing systems - features of choice, rating of models

Ironing clothes, towels, bedding and table linen is an everyday routine that takes a lot of time and energy. It is impossible to quickly iron a pile of things with an ordinary classic iron, especially if the products have decorative elements or a complex pattern. Therefore, modern housewives prefer to use ironing stations and presses, where all additional devices are at hand. The rating of ironing systems will tell you which model is best to stay in order for ironing to take place with comfort and quality.

How to choose an ironing system

An ironing installation for the home is a device consisting of a board, an iron and a steam generator, interconnected in a special way. Some buyers are perplexed why to buy expensive systems, when you can buy all the components separately. The fact is that in the finished fixture, the devices are compact, reliably fixed and according to the characteristics are combined with each other.

When choosing an installation for ironing, you need to pay attention to the quality and set of functions of the components.

Board

The board in the ironing system only in form resembles a regular board for ironing. The more expensive the model, the more convenient and functional this element will be. Typically, the following functions are provided:

• heating the surface of the board allows to dry wet clothes during ironing, eliminate wet spots and condensation;
• with the help of the fan, excess moisture and steam are drawn out, it is easier to make arrows and iron the slippery light fabric;
• a soft stream of air under the material covering the board creates an air gap that allows you to smooth the problem tissue without touching the iron;
• steam blowing provides hot steam to the surface of the board, due to which the smoothed fabric softens and straightens.

The active board, along with the iron and the steam generator, is involved in the ironing process.

Iron and steam generator

As in the classic models of irons, the power of the device, the material of the coating of the sole and additional nozzles are important here. It is good if there is a function of vertical steam supply or a separate iron for steaming curtains and clothes hanging on the shoulders.

When choosing a steam generator, you should pay attention to performance. The higher the pressure maintained, the better the treatment. It is good if the steam power is manually adjusted.

If you intend to iron a lot of linen, it is better to choose a model with a large boiler volume and the ability to add fluid during operation. In order not to have distilled water poured into the steam generator, it is necessary to take a model with a filter for descaling.

Ironing home installations have various additional devices: sleeve platforms for ironing sleeves, cuffs and legs; gas lift for raising and lowering the board; rack for hangers and much more. The choice depends on the free space in the living room and the amount of money that you are willing to spend. Budget models cost from 30 thousand rubles, premium installations - more than 80 thousand rubles.
