Ironing Board Recommendations
 

What ironing boards are used by members & is there such a thing as the "best" one to use for regular home ironing, sewing & quilting? The one I have is cheap & wobbly (especially on carpet). Would appreciate any suggestions.

My son bought one from Walmart that is metal and much wider than mine. I really like it best. I can iron clothes faster on it thanI can on mine. I would replace mine but , of course, mine is in perfect condition and doesn't need replacing. Too bad.

I have a desk. Upon that desk I padded an additional board with muslin, insulbrite and a quilted (plain) fabric on top and it is a wonderful ironing table. I absolutely love it.

I WANT TO GET RID OF MY IRONING BOARD. I am in a wheelchair and my ironing board is stuck in the too high position. What I've been thinking of doing, is using a 3' utility table with a silicone baking sheet on top covered by 2 towels and muslin. Think it will work?

I have a big board. I put it on a dresser because it bent my cheap-o ironing board! :)

That sounds perfect. If I had a room totally devoted to quilting, that is what I would do. I think I would raise it higher as I am tall.

hheelleenn-your idea sounds good! Give it a try! :)

I found mine at an auction. It is metal, does not wobble, and stores easily. The idea of having one wider sounds pretty good, too.

I'll be getting the one at Walmart. $40 and very good reviews. It is built like the $100 boards and is 18" wide.
