Review on Whitmor Supreme Ironing Board Paragon by John Ford

I was really torn on whether to give it 4 or 5 stars. The color is great (which is admittedly a bit lighter than the picture, which is fine with me) and it has the perfect amount of padding. I had no trouble getting the straps to work as mentioned by others which actually makes me wonder if they have ineffective straps or if I didn't notice that they were attached with velcro and doubled in length when untied . In the end I decided to give this cover 4 stars for several reasons. One is that you have to pull the strings really hard to get them tight. Also, after tightening, the strings get quite long. I cut the strings short, then tied them together and tucked them under my pillow out of the way. Finally, as mentioned, a third strap would be helpful to keep the pad even, since the holes are already in place.
