The mirror is the most common option.

Board material
The material of the platform itself may also be different:
- Plywood, particle board, particle board, fiberboard, fiberboard. characterized by low price and ubiquitous prevalence, but not very durable;
- Metal alloys (often aluminum). strong, durable, but prone to rust over time. Also, aluminum covers can bend and warp when in use;
- Thermoplastic. modern, lightweight, reliable, but relatively expensive.
Covering can be classic cloth (cotton, sailcloth, carbon fiber) and modern Teflon. Teflon cover is fireproof and durable, but its price is higher. It represents a cloth with a specialized coating, which improves the quality of ironing and creates thermal protection: if you leave a hot iron on it for a while the cloth will not catch fire. Between the base and the covering there is usually a layer of polyurethane foam, padding or batting.
Retractable board
In stores to find such a variation is problematic, but you can order it in any furniture shop or do their own making. This design is most often placed in a cabinet or dresser. It is assumed that the wider part of the base will be fixed on the guide elements, while the table top is folded in half. Such a board is traditionally sized, limited to the dimensions of the drawer. But such an element does not take a lot of space in comparison with similar devices.
Advice! When choosing a recessed ironing board, pay attention to the presence of functionality to rotate the design.

After ironing is complete there is always a question: where to put the board? You can store it in the pantry, stow it behind furniture or just lean it against the wall. Very uncomfortable and impractical.
Furniture manufacturers have found a way out of this situation. they have developed designs of surfaces that can be hidden behind the closet or in the drawer behind the compartment door.

- hidden behind the cabinet panels, the construction does not spoil the look of the interior, and does not interfere with movement around the room;
- ironing surface is easily put into operating position in a few seconds;
- The ironing surface can be built in independently, adjusting the position in the cabinet to your requirements;
- safe to use.
How to choose a built-in board correctly
Buying a board for ironing is a difficult task that requires taking into account a large number of nuances. It is best to ask for help from specialists, who will tell the features of each model and warn about their disadvantages. If you choose the product yourself, you need to pay attention to the following characteristics:
- Size. Buy such a board, which after installation will not interfere with the free movement of people in the apartment. To exclude the possibility of error, you should make all the necessary measurements in advance.
- Weight. This indicator is important when choosing products that will be attached to the thin wall of the cabinet. If the weight is too great, then the device can fall and break something in the apartment.
- Sustainability. Never rule out the possibility of getting burnt while ironing. To prevent this from happening, the base must be stable. In addition, the wobbly design will be an inconvenience to the hostess.
- The quality of the support. To prevent the product from falling out of the cabinet or niche, it must be provided with a secure lock. This part of the construction is made of various durable materials.
- Reliable mechanism. The device that allows you to raise and lower the board must work without any problems. When buying a product, you should ask the retailer about the material used to make the mechanism. It must be strong and durable.
