Likewise. I leave mine set up all the time in my sewing room and sometimes have more than one project occupying space on the ironing board... since I have been working on a million small pieces for Bonnie Hunter's Allietare, I have also had my small cutting mat on one end. I'm so glad I made the investment.
I had to buy a separate ironing board and iron for my husband because he couldn't figure out how to iron his shirts on my big board.
