Wall mount ironing boards come in all shapes, sizes and price ranges. You can find wire wall racks for storing your ironing board, iron and accessories for less than $15. On the other end of the spectrum, you can find built in, recessed and cabinet ironing boards that cost over $300 and even up to $500 for a top of the line model.
The more expensive wall mounted ironing boards include features like swiveling and multi-position settings in order to work best in the space provided. They also have attractive cabinets and covers that in some cases make the ironing board all but invisible when it is stored. Some wall mounted ironing boards may be temporarily mounted and removable, while others are not only permanent fixtures but even built into the wall or cabinet so as to be less visible and more a part of the housing decor.
Of course space efficiency and convenience is the name of the game for a wall mount ironing board and to these ends there are many different features and options to choose from. For example, swiveling vs. non-swiveling boards. Swiveling boards are capable of forming several different angles to the mounting wall thus allowing for more flexibility in board placement within a confined space. Non swiveling boards typically form a 90 degree angle with the wall when they are in service so your room must accomodate a board that juts directly our from the wall.
The wall mount ironing board pictured above is one that swivels and so it adjusts more easily to the room size and also to the preferred position of the person doing the ironing. Some ironing boards acually fold in half prior to storage, thus creating an even more compact unit when it is stored against the wall. Other features include special padding and extra sturdy contruction, not to mention the various decorative storage designs available on the market.
