Ironing board Leifheit Classic M Compact Plus 120 x 38 cm

Leifheit Classic M Compact Plus 120 x 38 cm is a household ironing board designed to provide a stable, flat work surface for everyday garment and linen care. The ironing board features a padded, steam-permeable cover laid over an expanded metal top that allows steam to pass through and supports effective drying and smooth pressing. A fixed metal iron rest with silicone pads protects the iron soleplate and prevents heat build-up, while the robust four-tube base frame ensures stability during use. Adjustable height settings and a compact footprint make this model suitable for regular domestic ironing and convenient storage.

Advantages

The steam-permeable expanded metal surface promotes even steam distribution and efficient moisture escape for better ironing results. The padded cover provides a consistent pressing surface while reducing shine on fabrics. A dedicated metal iron rest with silicone pads offers a safe place to set the iron between strokes and protects the soleplate from scratches. The four round tube base gives the board solid stability and reduces wobble during use. Height adjustability lets users select a comfortable working level to reduce strain on the back.

How to use

Place the ironing board on a flat, stable floor and open it until the locking mechanism engages. Adjust the board height within the 76–96 cm range to a comfortable working position and ensure the legs are fully extended for stability. Lay the garment flat on the padded, steam-permeable surface and iron according to the fabric's care label, using steam as needed; the expanded metal top permits moisture to pass through for improved results. When pausing, set the iron on the fixed metal rest and rely on the silicone pads to protect the soleplate. After use, allow the board and iron rest to cool before folding the board for storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the board with a standard household steam iron and follow fabric care instructions. For best results with delicate fabrics, choose a lower temperature setting and test on a hidden area. Always ensure the board is fully locked in position before ironing and store it in a dry place to prevent corrosion of metal components.
