Yes! I don't paper piece, but long stretches at the machine are a killer for my back and legs. So I set up the iron in the utility room which is on the opposite end of the house. Those walks to the ironing board are just what the doctor orders for an aching back and legs. I also have one of those little mini irons that I plug in and have standing in a glass mug for those quick presses.
