The invention relates to a portable textile treatment device comprising a heatable soleplate () intended to be in contact with a textile (TXT) for treating the textile. The heatable soleplate () comprises a soleplate opening (H). The device comprises a module (MD) comprising an image sensor () for taking an image of the textile to be treated through the soleplate opening (H), and a control unit () configured for a) executing an algorithm stored in said portable textile treatment device, using the taken image as an input of the algorithm, to obtain a classification of the textile, and for b) controlling, based on the classification, at least one operating parameter of the portable textile treatment device. The module (MD) and the control unit () are integrated within the portable textile treatment device. The image sensor comprises an active surface sensitive to light which is oriented with respect to the surface of the heatable soleplate (), with an absolute value of an orientation angle being in the range from 15 to 70 degrees. The portable textile treatment device further comprises thermal insulation means arranged in-between the heatable soleplate () and the module (MD) for insulating the module (MD) from heat dissipated by the heatable soleplate ().

An ironing board assembly includes an ironing board with a main board having a substantially flat ironing surface that extends longitudinally between a first end and a second end. The ironing board assembly also includes at least one wing being integrally and movably connected to the main board and having a wing surface for extending the ironing surface of the main board.

Ironing board assembly with configurable ironing surface

An ironing board assembly includes an ironing board having a main board portion and at least one auxiliary board portion that is movably connected to the main board portion such that the auxiliary board portion is movable between operating and collapsed positions. A flexible ironing board cover is attachable to the ironing board so as to cover ironing sides of both the main and the auxiliary board portions, and to provide an ironing surface for a user to iron on. A tensioner is configured to pull the flexible cover taut over the covered ironing sides such that the ironing surface extends seamlessly across any joint or gap between the main and auxiliary board portions.

An ironing device includes a base, a handle moveable relative to the base, and a resilient member biasing the handle in an upper position and allowing movement of the handle upon exertion of a force thereon by a user towards a lower position. Further, a steam controller is operatively connected to the handle such that release of steam of the ironing device is intuitively controlled by the force exerted on the handle by the user. A console is connected with the base and is provided with at least one operating button. The handle includes a recess for accommodating the console, where the console and the handle are configured so that an operating button is operable with the same hand that holds the handle.
