The entire set-up can be stored in a closet when company comes, and the table can be taken on picnics, etc. I iron everything on this table--haven't used my traditional ironing board for years (but still have it). I can put the table (without the ironing top on it) next to my sewing desk for more support when quilting anything large.
Welcome from St. Clair Shores, MI. You've already made yourself at home. You'll fit right in nicely. :)
