There must have been a drop of some substance that melted. But, I have put my iron down the same way on the center section many times, with no melting.

I still like the unit very much, so I'm going to cover it with the silvery ironing board cloth, and keep using it, but I wanted you to know this, if you've decided to look for a similar unit.
Perhaps the covering for the top isn't 100% cotton.
