Do you like ironing?

Virgo, since what about the iron, it makes sense to take this device or not

Girls, I'm redirecting to the other side. The question is essentially who loves to iron? And how do you feel about it? As for myself, I long ago decided that this category of labor belongs to slave labor and it is problematic to translate it into a creative one. Answers such as meditation are accepted conditionally.

But you will laugh ... I love ironing ... I just remember the smell of childhood ... ironed linen ...
Seriously though, ironing in small volumes is not enough, but when the sea ... then the thought of an ironing press comes into my head ... but I already got sick of the press two years ago ...

I put the board in front of the video, load a good film - and LOVE to iron!

The energy consumption when ironing the clothes is equal to the work of a tractor driver.
Here ironing the linen for 3 hours, you can assume that you worked for three hours on the tractor.
I don't like ironing, I just hate it.

And I also like to iron for some reason ... especially all sorts of small things ... I bought myself an excellent iron with all possible bells and whistles and I iron, I calm my nerves in my free time. the smell is ... And the stacks in the closet are beautiful. neat .. My sister is "raccoon-gargle", she would wash for days, but she hates ironing! And here I am, on the contrary. When there was no automatic washing machine, mountains of linen in the bathroom were my scourge, and washing half the weekend was a hellish punishment. I bought a car and saw the "white light". But the little sister grumbles: Why didn’t they come up with an automatic iron. to put everything clean there, and take out-ironed ?? !!
Probably you will advise us to cooperate, but this is not possible, the distance between us is 3500 km
Recently I bought the magazine "Consumer. Household Appliances" - I consider this magazine simply "the Bible" for deviceaholics
I was surprised at this ironing system:
🔗
Works for "suction" - that is, it "sucks" the thing to the board and it will not move when ironing (arrows on trousers, folds on a skirt, etc.)
Works for "blowing" - when you need to iron something domed.
The board is installed in a vertical position and you can hang a thing on it, turn on the "blowing" and it will freshen up, ventilate, free from extraneous odors. You can turn on the heating at the same time and your raincoat or coat will dry out quickly after rain.
In short, the thing, judging by the descriptions, is wonderful, but here's the price ... If it was worth within 10 thousand, I would definitely buy it for myself! And she gnawed, stroked, stroked ...
By the way, ironed linen and clothes (which, it seems, do not require ironing) get dirty much less (the villi stick to the main fabric and cling to dirt less). And it is also a powerful hygienic procedure. Ironing panties and socks is not a phobia! Fungi and other contagion cannot withstand extreme temperatures.
When my daughter was 6 years old, she caught ringworm from a cat. This, I will report to you. there was "KAIF" - everything she touched in a day was ironing. Lazy-shave bald How do you like this "upbringing by circumstances"?

How many of us are fans of irons gathered here. I also love ironing more than any other homework. But I don’t like it in fits and starts, I devote to ironing all day, almost the whole. TV set + Vidic + ironer, I watch all films on disks this way: D

I don't iron bed linen and towels at all.
These non-ironed items absorb moisture better.
My next items are a light dress.As always, synthetics, in the dress of which I am no more than 2 hours a day. Brought him to life once, and then only washing and drying on the crucifix.
I wash the curtains in the "curtains" mode, then hang them up, and the rest of the folds can be perfectly smoothed out with a steam cleaner.
Panties that belong to underwear and they need to be treated with a temperature regime, I process them with a steam cleaner.
As for the bed linen, I don’t iron it at all. It may not be hygienic, but it's my nature.
After drying, I carefully fold it, smooth it out with my hands and put it on the shelf. If this is the case in the summer, then, in general, it has dried up and bed.
I rarely use an iron.

Since I hate (sorry, hated) ironing, no one has ever resisted this business so much! But now my life has changed, and I even iron bed linen with pleasure, which has not happened to me for the last eight years. I will not write for a long time, I will only say that I accidentally got to the presentation of Laura Star and fell ill with this ironer, but its price made my husband doubt my adequacy, so I quickly found a similar (for me) system at a normal price. Fortunately, there is no limit, in addition to all this, I also received a steam generator, since we are talking about Karcher. Now my least favorite is to lay out things that don't need to be ironed :-)

As for the bed linen, I don’t iron it at all. It may not be hygienic, but it's my nature.

I don’t iron either!
if you wash at a temperature of 90-95 degrees, then for hygiene it is quite enough ... well ... if there are no special circumstances, of course .. that require an increased temperature regime!

I have colored bedding. I wash at 60 degrees, and then ... I don’t iron at 95, so I won’t save up any color sets. what's the point in such a temperature? all my own, after a shower ...

I don't like ironing, but I like ironed ... ??? Unity and struggle of opposites ...

I rarely iron bed, only on especially solemn occasions, and I iron towels - they are made softer. ... I want a steam cleaner, I just can't choose - what I want, I can't, what I can - I don't want

I have colored bedding. I wash at 60 degrees, and then ... I don’t iron at 95, so I won’t save up any color sets. what's the point in such a temperature? all my own, after a shower ...

the fact is that "own", let's say, microflora dies at temperatures above 60 degrees ... showers do not matter here.
but "not their" animals must be destroyed by steam!

frost and sun during drying, I think, perfectly "finish off" all kinds of microflora. and you can't put the bed in the washing machine :)

blessed is he who believes, warmth to him in the world ...

well, rich people are special people ... as a rule, advertisements about germs from the toilet, settling on a toothbrush and face lotions with particles of gold, are designed for such people.
and we, here, do not erase above 60 degrees and yet "not our own living creatures" have bitten to death at night.

[sweetka]

well, rich people are special people ... as a rule, advertisements about germs from the toilet sitting on a toothbrush are designed for such people

sweetka ... Are you saying that not rich people have germ-free toilets and bacteria-free toothbrushes ???

I think it will be interesting and useful for you to read the books "Skin Diseases" and "Infectious Diseases" at your leisure.

How to iron delicate, lingerie?
Lingerie, best hand ironed ...

I think that bringing everything in the house to sterility is also not entirely correct, otherwise “strangers” will take the place of the “killed friends”. If, of course, there are no patients, something infectious ... I, like a "spoken" boiled and steamed granddaughter's bottles, the nurse saw and scolded ... Well, I remembered how the maternity hospital was sterilized, disinfected, and staphylococcus - I was really glad to be so diligent ... I bred and multiplied ... competitors, then they destroyed: D Maybe I'm exaggerating, but somewhere like that ...
My neighbor came up with a theory, and I like it .. -.the fabric deteriorates from the iron - one time, electricity bills grow - two, well, no one will die from unironed sheets and will not appreciate diligence - these are three .... I hate ironing ... I shirk all the time ...

And I rarely iron bed linen ...
It is strange that until there was an automatic washing machine and an ironing press, I always ironed ... And now, after the automatic washing machine, the laundry is not crumpled, if folded neatly and evenly, it looks like ironed. I iron only white sets with embroidery, and at the same time I also pre-starch. And I also iron a satin set - here the position obliges!
And with the press (I bought it on the occasion of the Soviet one in a thrift store) I like to iron in the off-season, when there is no heating in the apartment, it's so warm from it ... And I even iron the linen that is in the dresser ...
In general, I iron the bed linen on a large scale twice a year ...

With the "arrival" of the steam generator in my house ironing any laundry or clothes has become very fast and, in fact, a favorite thing to do is to hang everything neatly after washing, and after drying, fold it neatly, and then - whack-whack and you're done)

[necessity]

With the "arrival" of the steam generator in my house ironing any clothes or clothes has become very fast and, practically, a favorite thing

Have you had a steam generator for a long time? I mean, when I bought myself a good ironing machine, I liked ironing for a long time, and then, when everything became completely habitual, there was no more pleasure ... now without the infrequent necessity and I don't even get it.

I really liked the recipe for ironing from the Dachnitsa, now I use it more ...

And I love ironing bed linen, I used to hate this occupation, and then I liked it, such neat piles, well, let it be the effect for one day, it's still so nice to cover the ironed linen
But I hate to iron all sorts of little pigs, so I buy mostly clothes that do not wrinkle, or they wrinkle weakly

[necessity]

I have had it for more than 2 years), of course it happens that I will undermine the ironing (there are different circumstances), but now it does not bother me at all, the machine copes with laundry of any "dryness")

I love ironing my husband's shirts

As for the linen, I bought a couple of sets of the header and forgot about ironing the linen. Now they are already worn out, I bought one new one - not tender, and it’s bliiin, again I need to iron it all the time.

I hate ironing! And I hardly iron anything, unless I have to pull the thread on myself! And almost immediately, with a small scandal, my husband taught herself to iron everything - he iron his shirt-trousers.

I hate ironing and washing windows

Sister: girl_haha: My husband in bed is accustomed to ironing, with his weight he does it three times faster than me. And all the little things are mine. Ahead is summer: girl_cray: once I put it on, the machine washed it, and from ironing it ... And the bed linen and kitchen towels, napkins, I, like that prehistoric dinosaur, also starch ...

I have a clear distribution of responsibilities - washing (washing machine) cleaning, ironing the bed, buying food and cooking, my husband ironing himself and earning money And now my biggest secret is in a whisper ..... he also pays my salary for my duties every month and I him

In short, I realized that I am the laziest here - I neither iron, let alone starch. I try to buy bed linen that does not require it (well, or almost does not require it), because for me this is killing time.

Summer clothes are all natural (cotton, linen), so here you have to stand by the open-hearth. The husband strokes himself (sometimes I can also slip mine)

Brain food when the curtains need to be ironed

But one of my friends can iron everything all day ... it calms her down

[kava]

My dear aunt is just sick of ironing. All my life in children.She worked as a laundress in the garden ... But she doesn't like to cook. And I iron as needed, my daughter does not like ironing, but ironing her things for 2 hours ...kava- you are not alone, or rather, you are not alone. I recall with horror how I heated the water, soaked the laundry, boiled it down, turned it blue, starch it, ironed it ... It was not me, for sure ....

I have two men at home. Ironing bedding, towels, jeans, T-shirts are their responsibilities. And I already have to iron all sorts of ruffles and shirts.

Virgo, I don’t stroke mountains !!!!
Husband a shirt in the morning (not everyone) and that's it.
Some kind of wrinkle-free clothes right now,
After washing, I hang it evenly, which does not have to be ironed later.
Bed, finally, I haven't ironed for a hundred years ...
The husband ironed his trousers himself, always, I once stroked 2 arrows on the leg and all the points were immediately set ...
Well, in general, I can participate in competitions on laziness ...
but I'm afraid that it will be too lazy for me ...

[Lenusik]

Lenusik, but what about military cunning and ingenuity.? In the first year of my life together, I ironed my husband's trousers, my mother-in-law saw me ironing them, said proudly that her son had ironed his trousers since the first grade, well, I quickly got out of ironing trousers-shirts. I stroked the children to the kindergarten school, now they have grown up, they iron themselves ... My son does not even trust anyone to wash his things, after his grandmother helped him to wash a new almost jumper with boiling ... Nobody knows what pulled her ... Although she never approached the technique before, my sister and I washed, stroked, vacuumed, my mother pursed her lips and said that she was not a technical mindset, this, as I understand it, is a trick, so a trick, but we are so they were proud that we can do everything ... And now she tells her friends how she pretended that she did not understand technology ...

I also sometimes pretend to be a teapot: girl_haha: I don’t iron trousers for 15 years in principle.
Virgo, what kind of clothes do you buy that does not require ironing? Synthetics? All natural fibers are crumpled, my husband can only smooth out a freshly washed T-shirt with his belly

Well, I never ironed T-shirts, synthetics have something (mostly knee-highs - why iron them, they don't wrinkle). Summer already wrote - just stupidly have to (well, I have not yet grown to amerikosov, who do not get along at all). All things are dried on hangers in the most expanded condition.

Do not iron in the Americas things after washing, just when drying,
add fabric softener to the drum,
2-3 leaves and everything is soft fluffy, just fold it neatly, or hang it on hangers ...

I love to iron ... a cat, and I iron things.
I take this calmly and without fanaticism, my mother-in-law ironing men's socks, I am not capable of that. I iron T-shirts, jeans, I don't like their appearance after washing and drying, but I hang the pastel linen evenly and fold them neatly.

[Pakat]

Pakat .
Are you saying that drying machines are widespread in the Americas and it is customary to dry things in a drum by adding ... uh ... what you wrote about?
Or are they dried in separate dryers? And how linen clothes (I have a lot of them) after such drying, should they be ironed ??? and cotton ???
please tell us about the fabric softener in more detail!

found this about fabric softener:

A fabric softener (also called fabric softener) is used to prevent static cling and soften fabric. It is available as liquid, crystals and dryer sheets.
Fabric softeners can also come in the form of dryer sheets that are added to clothes in a tumble dryer to soften fabrics and prevent static. Many alternative uses of dryer sheets have been suggested by users

it is a translation....

Is there such a thing on our Central Russian Upland ??

In America, tumble dryers are widespread, which are usually purchased complete with a washing machine ...
Usually, the entire wash is processed with a softener, sheets in the dryer, or liquid in the washer, the effect is the same. Works on any fabric ...
There is such a thing in Russia, look for a softener, or fabric softener ...

[PACK]

PACK,
we call your softener conditioner. but in the form of leaflets, I have not met. only liquid.
but ... I would not say that after our conditioner, clothes made of linen or cotton do not need to be ironed ... but how are you?
Here's another! You wrote that "leaves are added to the drum when drying", and we add conditioner at the last rinse. How do leaflets work?

I don’t understand, what does the fabric softener have to do with it?
Yes, the conditioner gives some softness to, for example, terry towels, but does not level them in any way. I don't like the smell of air conditioners and liquid ms. And I try to buy washing powder without smell.

I do not know what is there in America, but in Europe for a long time they have been making clothes from flax and cotton, processed by special. technology - these fabrics hardly wrinkle. In Moscow, such fabrics are used for women's clothing stefanel, elena miro, dimenzione danza; male - camel aktive. We tried it all ourselves. And once at the All-Russian Exhibition Center I bought a national shirt made of flax on the floor - it can neither be ironed nor steamed - it is impossible to iron it! Even Slava Zaitsev once complained about the quality of domestic flax, in the sense that it is ecologically excellent, but it is difficult to wear - there is no sight!

In America, ironing has long been given up. Many years ago I walked around, looked at the people there and was surprised - everyone walks in a chew (then there were no conditioners for washing) and did not bother about it. Yes, in general, everything is simple about clothes: pants or shorts and a T-shirt and that's it, and no complexes! Only every day - a different set, so that no one would think that you put on yesterday's dirty clothes.

I don't like ironing, but I iron almost everything. IMHO, the same jeans with T-shirts, just don't hang them up - they still look sloppy. There are happy exceptions that absolutely do not crumple - so I don’t iron them.
Air conditioner, in my opinion, makes ironing easier for some things, nothing more. Well, plus acts as an antistatic agent.

[MariV]

MariV,
I looked at the camel aktive site, which is very original by the way, and this is what I noticed. They have a lot of cotton products with up to 5% elastane added to the fabric. Most likely due to the elastane, the fabric does not need to be ironed. Or did YOU mean by "fabric processing" something else?
Do you have items from the camel aktive linen collection? do they need to be ironed?

dopleta, don't they even iron purely linen things?
in general, one can only rejoice at such pragmatism!

I don't like ironing - that's putting it mildly! especially bed linen

There is no need to be equal to America, they have their own traditions, or rather lack of them. In Russia, we have our own ...
I know how to iron, but I don't. I believe that a man should be able to do any work, including "female" work, (if you don't know how, we will teach, if you don’t want to, we will force you). But this does not mean that it needs to be done constantly ...
And I prefer ironing only women's stockings (tights)

Citizens who have a JALL trowel from Ikea?

Wrong side:


I have a board 62 cm long - for small things or to iron something quickly - great
