Our covers are made large enough.  Covers do shrink a bit over time, and by making them large enough, the stitching seam doesn't shift gradually into the ironing area, even when the base layer is replaced.

We provide our covers in 100% polyester or 100% aramid fibre.  These materials are much better than other covers that are mostly made out of cotton, because cotton absorbs moisture.  This way the cotton cover stays wet when intensively used, especially since the suction of this board is limited.

Polyester has the property to be very smooth.  It has the advantage that textile can slide very easily over it and the laundry is therefore easy to manipulate.

Aramid on the other hand, is restitant to high temperatures and has therefore a very long service life.  Our aramid texile is selected carefully to have the perfect structure: not too smooth and not too coarse.

We advise to pay close attention to the base layer(s) under the cover.  Mostly a single layer of needle felt is in use.  This felt hardens quite soon, and this restricts the suction even more.  Our suggestion is to exchange the neede felt with a base layer made of silicon foam together with a cover made of aramid.  This board would get this way a significant upgrade.
