Foppapedretti Assai Folding Ironing Board, Natural

Not cheap but well worth the investment. Easy to assemble, sturdy and with a massive surface area making short work of all the ironing, particularly bedding. The retractable metal shelf holds my steam generator easily and the lower shelf is great for stacking finished items. It folds quickly and easily and the wheels make it a doddle to move around. Stands neatly behind the door when not in use. I fully expect to be passing this on to the next generation, it’s so solid. Any reservations I had about spending that amount on an ironing board evaporated the moment it arrived.

This product is expensive, but it is built to last and from high quality materials. It's easy to fold out and has a wide surface which is perfect for most items. It also has a handy shelf under the ironing surface, and a sturdy support for your iron. It even has wheels so even though it's heavy, it's super easy to move around. Definitely recommended for making ironing at least a little less taxing!

I absolutely love my new ironing board. It's pleasant to put up out of the cupboard, no longer any creaking and clanking metal, and works so brilliantly as the board is much wider and shorter than cheap metal versions; much more fit for purpose. The iron rest is solid, shelf underneath large enough to fit a pile of ironed t shirts. The ironing surface is very good, with thick padding too. I was worried about assembly but adding the wheels is no harder than buttering a slie of toast. This will make ironing a pleasure rather than a chore, I guarantee. Wish I had bought one years ago.

Great quality and very heavy, however wheels are cheap and gave in after a year of very light use. It’s a bit overpriced in my opinion but generally quite satisfied.

This is very well built, sturdy and folds and unfolds easily. The wheels enable you to push it around when folded, but it is easy to carry. It fits into a smaller space than the usual metal boards. Nice, wide ironing area. Pull out metal frame to store iron when ironing. So glad I bought this.

Our old board lasted us well - this new board already is excellent and works well with our steam generator iron. Love the quality and size. Cannot fault it, and would definitely recommend.

My husband inherited a wooden ironing board many years ago and it finally gave up the ghost! I already have one of those larger ironing boards with the criss-cross ironing surface, but found it left imprints of the mesh on clothing, so decided to replace the existing one with another wooden one. I absolutely LOVE this ironing station! It's not your typical ironing board shape - much wider and quite a bit shorter, but along with the reflective cover, it halves my ironing time as the steam penetrates the clothes and is reflected back to the underside of anything I iron. It may appear expensive, but it's a beautifully constructed board and so easy to put up and put down. The iron plate retracts into the board for storage and is very sturdy. Worth every single penny!

I was a bit dubious as it was the most money I’ve ever spent on an ironing board but it is wonderful. Not only does it look great, it folds to a really compact size that’s so easy to store. It’s sturdy and easy to use. I find any excuse to iron now just so I can use it. Very happy😊
