You are going to love using it. Many many years ago my grandpa made me one. He was trained as a tailor when living in an orphanage and the one hr made me is a tad smaller at one end in order to better iron sleeves.

I threw one away that looked just like that. I bought it new, put it on my kitchen counter, and the next day it was covered in bugs that I was afraid were bedbugs. That began a five-month infestation of the bugs in my kitchen. I must have killed 50 a day. They covered the cabinets, walls, ceilings... everywhere.
Turns out they were some kind of beetle. I found that out from the second pest control company that came out. Even though I had put the ironing board in my garage all winter to destroy all of the bugs and eggs, they told me to throw it out.
I wouldn't bring anything in my house that came from someone elses trash.
