FAQs
Will this cover fit a board larger than 102 x 43cm?
No, this cover is strictly sized for 102 x 43cm boards and will not stretch to fit larger frames.
Is the cover heat-resistant?
Yes, it is designed for use with standard home steam irons.
Can I wash the cover in a washing machine?
It is recommended to wipe it clean with a damp cloth; machine washing may cause the material to shrink or degrade the binding.
Does it come with extra padding?
The cover is a standard replacement surface; it does not include extra heavy-duty padding.
What is the best way to secure it if it keeps loosening?
Consider using ironing board clips or fasteners if the provided elastic toggle is not maintaining sufficient tension on your specific board frame.
Troubleshooting
The cover is sliding or bunching up during use
Ensure the securing mechanism (drawstring or elastic) is pulled tight and locked firmly beneath the board.
Creases appear on the ironed fabric
Check that the cover is pulled tight enough to remove all surface wrinkles; ensure there is no debris trapped between the cover and the ironing board base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the cover, remove your old board cover and ensure the foam padding beneath is clean and debris-free. Lay the Abbey cover over the surface, pulling the edges firmly until the fit is taut across the board. If the cover includes a drawstring or elastic toggle, pull it tight and secure it under the narrow end of the board. For maintenance, wipe the surface with a damp cloth after cooling to remove dust or lint. Avoid using high-heat industrial steam equipment directly on the cover for extended periods to preserve the fabric integrity.
