Brabantia Universal Replacement Felt Underlay Ironing Board pad

I give it a heartFELT recommendation.
If you are the designated ironer for your family, it might not be a chore you relish. Having the correct tools to accomplish any job is often the key to making it less painful. This felt underlay arrives in one large piece to accommodate a variety of ironing board sizes. The directions say it is best to put the length of felt on the floor and then flipping your ironing board over and on top of the felt. Take a marker and draw the outline of your board onto the felt. Take a heavy duty scissor and cut along your the guideline markings. Put the ironing board upright, place the felt, now cut perfectly to size on top to cover the felt and the board. This thick and substantial felt provides a firm underlay as you iron, that is both functional as well as making the iron glide more easily. You can buy some paper thin pad that doesn't accomplish much or this one that actually makes the mind numbing chore of ironing a more efficient and enjoyable process.

Exceptional Quality Ironing Board Pad
It's a tad shocking to see a price for an ironing board pad that is approaching twenty dollars, but once you get this pad in your hand and feel it, you can begin to see the difference between a typical felt pad and this thick and supple pad. Brabantia is a Dutch company that is well known in Europe, but you won't commonly run across Brabantia products in the US. This thick and flexible pad is made of viscose (a fabric material related to rayon), and it is thick enough to form a very good layer underneath your ironing board cover, but breathable enough to work well with steam ironing. You simply cut the pad to your own size using a strong pair or scissors, and then affix your cover over it. I would not have given it five stars because of the price, but once I received it and used it with my Brabantia ironing board cover, I can easily give it a five star rating.

Nice Felt
I received this product and immediately noticed the quality. Much nicer than any pad I've had previously. Fits nicely and can be easily trimmed if needed. Of course this goes under an actual ironing pad and makes ironing much easier...no more ironing board hole outlines on my clothes. Try this with a non-stick silicon pad...really nice.
