COMMENT

FAVE

Here's what happened. Back in 1992 Judy Gold, one of our tireless 20th Century REMO product developers made herself a plain ironing board cover, because she couldn't find a pattern-free one in the shops.

We did some research and quickly discovered that there were many, many others who wanted them plain: free of florals and pointless patterns, devoid of naive and colourful Australiana references.

Cotton canvas seemed to be an intelligent way to go. The canvas is smooth enough not to transfer the grain onto delicate fabrics, yet course enough to grip the clothing a bit better than the shiny heat-resistant fabrics that you'll often find on an ironing board. Finally, instead of an elasticised edge, we opted rather for a perimeter cord that enables you to adjust each cover individually to each board.

Made in Australia with an obsessive attention to detail.

Regular: 146cm Long x 60cm Wide
Jumbo: 160cm Long x 60cm Wide

+ Regular AUD $42.00 => USD 37.47 approx

+ Jumbo AUD $44.00 => USD 39.25 approx

Plus 10% GST for Deliveries to Australian Addresses

| In just a few days of owning this...
it has improved my mornings beyond measure! I HATE ironing, but at least this makes it easier - stays on the board and looks good in the spare room. Thanks for making my mornings happier!!

| 15 years and still going strong
We have had our cover for at least 15 years and it is fabulous! Our cover has the pictures of the certain things in life-birth, marriage, death and ironing.....

This is the BEST thing that Remo have. It really, really works. The cover stays on perfectly, it is tough, it grips the clothes just the right amount and is plain and simple. Perfect.

Feels quite odd to be reviewing an ironing board cover but yours really is the best.. washes over and over again and always looks great, making ironing ALMOST a pleasure! Dolly East

| I love it ...
... I really do! It actually makes ironing easier and it looks so much better than the one that came with the new ironing board.

| Flat Out
These are the greatest ironing board covers, EVER! I have had one on my ironing board for about 8 years and it has only suffered the slightest of singe marks. I originally bought it for my mother but decided to use it for myself. I never got around to getting her one before Remo closed, but I think I can see an unusual stocking filler for all the households I give too!

| Bring Back the Burn Mark!
I hammered mine to extinction - a great surface for gripping those shirts. Any chance of the burn mark making a return as it was a great conversation piece?

| What about the one with the ready made burn mark?
I loved my old one with the burn mark printed on it. I would give you five stars for that one!

| For the Ironing Terminator
My Mother-in-Law is not easy on covers, but this one outlasts them all and has been missed when unavailable :( Great to have them back and looking forward to the return of the quirky designs.

From your description I would say you are on a winner! Being able to adjust the cover to fit is a great idea!

These are fantastic ironing board covers. We are still using ours after 8+ years. But I remember there being a whole range with appropriate sayings - ours says

| Where did I go wrong?
I loved this till I washed it and it shrank. Only slightly but I have an extra large board so it mattered. Still, the cover is so good and is the first to really fit so I am thinking I will have to add a piece so I can keep using it. Draw string is such a great idea - no elastic to perish.
