CAUTION ON THE PAMIDA-PURCHASED IRONING STATION!

Last night and today, I unexpectedly melted the fabric in two spots. See pics. These happened when I put my iron down on those surfaces, without other fabric underneath. I don't know why they happened. This has not happened with the center section, even though I frequently put my iron down alone to test the heat or to test the steam.

So, I'm going to add a layer of that silvery fabric for ironing board covers, which I happen to have for some reason, and staple it on, because the unit is still very useful.

In answer to another question: The wheels seem fine. Probably not super sturdy, but they wheel fine when I want them to. I would say that you should guide it carefully, in case the wheels are not pointing in the correct direction.
