Product Description

For the ultimate pressing performance, we suggest this professional-quality ironing board that has features used by the best garment makers, dry cleaners and tailors in the world.

In addition to steam suction, the -inchup-air-inch feature literally reverses the vacuum, to create blowing so you can press on a cushion of air. This ironing board is perfect for those delicate areas that are prone to show marks on the fabric (pocket area on pants, fly front, jacket lining, corduroy, velvet, and more.). With the professional features of this pressing board (vacuum and up-air) you should notice an immediate improvement in the finish quality of your ironing. No assembly required.

4From a designer
By Cara
I had my heart set on this ironing board having trained in the fashion industry and been very spoiled with some fabulous equipment. Now contemplating starting as an independent couture bridal/eveningwear business, my budget would not quite stretch to the real pro boards, I thought that this might be a good compromise for now... until I make my millions. :)So. Functions.The board heats up - this is not to dry your clothes(!) but it is to keep the board dry while using steam (that way it doesn't rust and will live a long and happy life). But, just so you know, it does warm up, and can get quite toasty.The up air. This function is to protect delicates - I am looking to play with some velvet/cord so I will update this review over time. From what I can tell, the up-air is definitely strong enough. It can lift fabric (and the instruction booklet it comes with) Hold onto your fabric or you may be picking it up off the floor. lol.Vacuum. It does have a vacuum. This can be helpful in keeping slippery fabric in place. It is mainly used to draw steam out of the garment so it is dry (and holds creases and shape better). It is not as strong as others (and the c88 may be better for that - I have heard this but not tested and sadly couldn't afford both.) I believe that it is perfectly good for removing the steam, but not as strong perhaps as I would like for holding my slippery silks.Weight. Yes. It is heavy. It does fold, but quite frankly, as a 115lb woman this almost weighs half as much as me (50lbs I think!). I don't fancy moving it too much. If you have a dedicated space, life is much better. The plus side is that it is really sturdy.Wide - The ironing surface is wide. Not like your cheap ironing boards. This provides a wide surface to press material before construction. Also good for full skirts (as is the shelf which prevents them trailing on the ground while you iron).All in all, I had hoped for a better vacuum motor (remember I am used to the seriously good pro ones and know that this is not supposed to compare given the price tag) but I am going to continue playing and see if it grows on me, especially since the up-air is a nice feature. It seems like a solid board, and think I like it. It is definitely a step in the right direction. As for whether the more powerful c88 would have been a better choice? I'm not sure yet. I will update in time to let you know how I get on...Would I recommend. I think so yes. For home use (although I can't seem to envisage spending so much if sewing weren't my passion, potential career, and first love), so for small businesses (alterations, possibly construction) and start ups this could give you something better than domestic, but without a professional investment. For heavy duty businesses with a lot more use (multiple employees and high product turnover) then simply remember it is not a pro board. This board does not need forgiving for it's limitations - it is amazing for what it aims to be for - the domestic market.

5Exceeded Expectations
By Michael
This table totally exceeded my expectations. The vacuum really holds fabric down well This keeps it flat and stable which almost eliminates the chances of accidentally ironing a wrinkle into your clothes. The up vacuum feature is really nice for ironing the top or trousers. It eliminates impression of the pockets you get from normal ironing. I purchased this along with a Reliable J490A IronMaven Home Ironing System with CSS and Anti-Calc Warning System and it actually made a much bigger difference in the amount of time it takes to iron than the new iron itself. The iron is going on eBay but the board stays for sure.

5Compare the C88 and the C81
By james
After seeing a vacuum board in action at my mother-in-laws in Europe, I decided to get one for my wife. I wanted a really good one to cut down the time she irons. After a lot of research, I found Reliable. I was torn between the C81 and the "more professional" model C88. I finally choose the more expensive C88, because I wanted "the best."My wife complained of the loud noise from the fan, so I returned the C88 model and ordered the C81. IT IS THE SAME BOARD! The only difference seems to be the fan motor. The C81 does not seem to suffer much, if any, in the amount of power in vacuum mode and it also has the "up draft" mode. Also the C81 is heated in "up draft" mode.Over all, The C81 is Highly recommended over the C88, and is much cheaper and quieter. Get this board.
