Great find! You will love the extra wide pressing surface. I have a 5' triple dresser for storage and an ironing surface. It has 4 small drawers, 2 large drawers and a cabinet in the middle with a door. DH made a big board top that is 24" x 66" to go on top. We stapled a couple layers of cotton batting on it and I made a heavy cotton duck cover with drawstrings so it could be taken off and washed. I love the big ironing surface and all the extra storage space. Unfortunately my kitties like it too, so I usually have to move one or both of them every time I want to use it. lol DH also made me a portable ironing surface from a wooden tv tray. He made a top that was a little larger than the tv tray and put a frame under it so it would fit over the tray. I take it to classes, etc. and, when I am sewing at home I put the removable top on my sewing cabinet next to my machine to press as I go. (So I don't have to move the kitties as often!)
