🔌 Sullivans Cordminder 12710 Review

I've been looking for a cable holder for my ironing board for a long time. The ones that stick up in the air with thick wire are just too flimsy and don't keep the cable out of the way.

So as you move the iron back and forth across the board, the weight keeps the extra cord pulled in as it slides up and down the back of the…
