I like this but I wish it was longer. It seems sturdy enough

Date: 11/25/12 6:46 PM I seriously thought of getting one of those, and for some reason passed it by. Maybe because I'd have to find a place to store it.
But thanks so much for the info about this site and that board! Now with better pictures, I can get a better idea of what it's like.

Date: 11/26/12 1:58 PM I have this ironing board to take to classes. It's very sturdy and gives you a larger surface area to iron on compared to other portable ironing boards. There is a hanger to hang it but I have not been able to find a place where I can hang it. |

I find it is really handy because I can keep it set up next to my sewing machine and can press as I sew and don't need to get out my full sized board. ------ Brine |

I think I will order it and sure it will come in handy.
I can always hang it behind a door when it needs to be put away plus it's handy to get at at.
Like Brine suggested I can just keep it under my coffee table where my sewing machines are when sewing and put behind door when not sewing.
Thanks ! |

Date: 11/29/12 8:39 AM That's a lot of money for an ironing board. Is it just that you don't have room for a full-sized one? It would be a whole heckuva lot cheaper! ------ ~Gem in the prairie |

Date: 11/29/12 3:53 PM I have no room for a full size board and it will just make things more cluttered . I have no room in closets for a full board
and it would have to be in a corner out in the open.
With this board being it's not long I can just slide it under something or hang behind door . -- Edited on 11/30/12 1:30 PM -- |
