AZ Jane - I’m with you about not having a pressing surface right next to my machine. I purposely make myself get up to press so I get a little exercise and I don’t kink my back up. I have used the June Tailor Cut and Press for years and it’s getting a bit shabby - thought I needed to get a new one but discovered the wool pressing mats last year and I’m sold. But I still make sure I have to get up to press.
