TIVIT AlumiTek Ironing Board Cover, Fits Small Boards 12x42 &13×43", Made in Italy, Alumitek PRO Heat-Reflective, Thick 4-Layer Padding, Scorch & Stain Resistant

I've been sewing/ironing for many decades but have never owned an ironing board cover of this caliber before. I've always just bought what I could find locally, which are always too thin and too skinny to cover the full width of an ironing board (and can never be tightened properly). I was excited to find this company while searching for something else on Amazon, and knew from previous experience with other products made in Italy that I could rely on these covers to be far superior to anything else I've had. I was not wrong in my assessment, so I have already ordered another size to fit a travel counter-top board I use occasionally. Being able to get a precise fit to whatever board size you use is stellar! I got the 18" x 59" and once it is in place and properly fastened, it is completely smooth. The padding is superior and should not leave iron board marks on my fabrics anymore. Having 3 sets of velcro closures for adjusting the width is great, although I do wish the loopy velcro piece was covered with a removable film while adjusting the cover ... they all got stuck on the fleecy lining and pulled off some fuzz, so I had to remove it as best as I could before fastening under the board. Not a big deal, but a bit stressful when trying to avoid it. The best feature of all is the thick corded elastic band with good quality toggle to pull it tight. There was plenty of length to work with, and it's easy to tuck away the excess inside the nose of the cover. Such generous side coverages. I am so delighted with this new cover and can't wait to start my next sewing project ... ironing is chore enough, but when you have a crappy board cover, the job is that much more frustrating. I highly recommend these! If they offered double sleeve board covers, I would have bought those, too. I ended up finding similar cloth by-the-yard to make my own, since the former padding on my sleeve board is still usable.

This is cover is perfect! It fits so well and is easily installed!

Perfect.

I gave the cover 4 stars because it is the material and quality I wanted. HOWEVER, it does not fit my 12 x 42 ironing board snuggly. It is too big. The draw string and velcro help a little to flatten the extra bulk. The package does not list the size so I emailed Tivit customer service in CA, but they never responded. I returned it and reordered a new one, but the second package did not list a size either. I decided to keep it and make it work. It was close to a perfect purchase.

Really great ironing board cover for an 18.5 X 49 size which isn't the easiest to find. It has the right amount of cushioning, Velcro straps for securing and cording in hem for a tight fit. Am pleased to say its holding up great with lots of use.

This is a top quality ironing board cover that is well worth the extra cost. Tivit's customer service was very helpful and eager to please.

My second-hand Rowenta ironing board’s original cover finally bit the dust. I was extremely happy that I was able to find the right sized cover for her. I iron clothes that need it, but I’m an avid sewist. I learned that Rowenta no longer supports their over-sized boards with covers. Regular covers do not fit. I put this one on right over the old one, and I couldn’t be happier. It’s surface is now new, clean, tight, and cushy. No odor. I got the silver-grey colored one.

Fits great and nicely padded. Just what I was looking for.
