Wall-mounted Corby trouser press, open
A trouser press, also referred to by the trademarked name Corby trouser press, is an electrical appliance used to smooth the wrinkles from a pair of trousers. They are commonly provided in hotel rooms worldwide, though may also be purchased for home use; they are generally associated with use by businessmen who require a formal appearance to their suit.
RAF veteran Peter Corby, the inventor of the press, died in August 2021, at the age of 97.[1][2]
