The JKSALES specified build ironing board was born out frustration stemming from the lightweight flimsy rocking boards that we see in many hotels. Our YJ288 ironing board came from hotels enquiring if there was something better after guest complaints about the flimsy ironing boards on offer.

JKSALES searched the market place and found nothing of any quality under $60.00 and so we decided to develop our own. It must have been a success as the competitors were quick to copy and came up short with a lightweight version that failed very quickly.

Good design and practicality was our aim, as hotels have to carry ironing boards as a necessity but find it hard to store somewhere in a room.

The YJ288 Ironing board was specifically manufactured to fit in the limited space in a hotel wardrobe hence the fold down height is only 107centimetres.

This means the board will fit under most shelves and hanging rails found inside a wardrobe that already has a space problem when you consider that where the guest room safe is also found.

An important component of achieving the compact size of this ironing board was making the iron holder on the end of the board retractable being a simple pull out push back action.

The compact length of this hotel ironing board can be attributed to the design of the legs in particular the right width of the legs that have been set up as 4 point arrangement that touches the floor. This arrangement prevents the board from being unsteady or get up the rocking movement when ironing. Without sacrificing the working height, the board can be adjusted to reach a maximum and comfortable 82cm ironing surface. To add stability we also specified the tubular material with one major difference than the cheap competitors that being the thickness of material used. This makes the legs rigid and adds weight to the board giving more stability to the ironing surface. A standard board weighs around the 3.5kg mark, the YJ288 weighs 5.8kg, we believe simply they will last longer.

To make the design workable, the ironing surface was made to be as full looking and useable as possible with 104cm length and 33cm width so your guests can iron that business shirt with ease having plenty of surface area to work on. That task is made easier by the padded scorch guard cover that has elasticized sides and a draw string to keep it neat and tidy at all times with the iron gliding smoothly other surface. Combined with the stylish quartz grey frame and the silver scorch guard cover this ironing board should fit in well with the décor found in hotels. As an added bonus it does not show any dirty marks that may get missed in the cleaning process unlike the white ironing boards generally found in many rooms.

Finally to finish up be aware that freight on these boards has to be price on application arrangement simply through weight and the various locations its to be sent to making it difficult to nominate a standard price. It will help should orders come through for these ironing boards in multiples of 3 seeing these that’s the carton quantity.

We decided by putting up this blog it was the best way to pass on extra  information about our magnifying mirrors and other products in a more extended format. Barely a day a goes by before we get an enquiry over the phone from a sales person who has the customer standing there in front of them with a question about a product – do you have any bigger magnifying mirrors or are the lighted magnifying mirrors LED, how long is the power cord that plugs the wall mounted hairdryer or how big is the mirror I want to mount my lighted magnifying mirror in a cupboard, will it fit? Hopefully this blog will go a long way to answer those questions.

Look for information on the magnifying mirrors by using the side menu

Choose a category that will answer your questions. If it’s a measurement question about a magnifying mirror then you will find it in mirror measurements along with the model number you are looking for.

We can see our new mirror brochure has been a great success and occasionally a customer chooses a mirror to purchase based on the image in the brochure. Some of the Chrome finished models look slightly gold in the printed image.  On all the model numbers for the magnifying mirrors the last letter denotes the colour of the finish on the mirror, C for Chrome, e.g. – jp7506C, G for Gold, e.g. –  HL7G,  N for Nickel e.g. –  jp808N. Photographing mirrors for a brochure is not an easy task in particular the colouration changes because of the light levels at the time.

Please keep checking back as we will update this blog on a regular basis.

Well its now time to get busy and get up to date, come visit us occasionally and see what’s new in magnifying mirrors, hairdryer range and we’ll do our best to keep you updated with all the latest news products and possibilities.
