I had an Ironrite Mangle, too. My mom taught me how on hers. The year my husband bought me one was the best Christmas. I ironed everything, ruffes, pleats, starched white men's dress shirts, jeans and slacks, all my kids school clothes, everything. I just loved it. I still love to iron, even by hand.
