Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Polder 1232-82 Deluxe Tabletop Ironing Board, Natural
Customer Review: Fine - but there are better options.
Summary: 3 Stars
Bought this because it was promoted when I bought my new iron, and reviews said it'd be perfect for my limited condo space. It is nice and small - though a bit too small for my tastes. For $10.00, I don't regret the purchase (though there's an over $8 shipping charge added on to that - they don't really alert to you - since it doesn't come directly from Amazon).
FYI, it doesn't really have a cover on it - unless you count the cotton covered board it's built with. Although this works just fine, would recommend going to TARGET - where I've since learned I could buy pretty much the same board - withoug waiting for it to be shipped - for the same price --- but with my choice of a desinger cover.
Customer Review: not sturdy enough for us big guys
Summary: 4 Stars
Pretty handy little item, but not for the rough and tough ironing when you are pushing down hard to do a heavy garment.
Although the pad itself appeared well made, and doesn't need a cover (don't even know if you can buy one), the stand was flimsy. The metal frame was thin and didn't stand up to aggressive ironing without annoying movement (up and down). The board tended to have a "mushy" feel when pressing down hard. My wife said that it was not made for gorillas. LOL But it still beats ironing on a bare table. Worth the price, but would have paid a few more dollars for a sturdier unit.
Customer Review: small ironing board
Summary: 4 Stars
I use this in combination with my floor ironing board because it's too short for large items but perfect for flat or small pieces. It is reasonably priced and portable.Customer Review: Polder 1232-82 Deluxe Tabletop Ironing Board

Now this is a great item.... No more dragging out my giant full size dinosaur. I would recommend this to anyone who still irons!!Customer Review: great for someone in a small space
Summary: 4 Stars
The best thing is that it folds flat and can be kept in any room for touch ups. The iron bay at the end stores underneath for space conservation when not in use, but when in use it creates a safe and stable place for that ever-so-hot iron. I consider that option as an excellent safety feature. Extra padding would be good, and I do add padding to all of my boards. It makes ironing a nicer experience and eliminates the possibility of getting a "waffle" pattern pressed into your garment. This tabletop model is well worth the money, which was a real bargain, in my opinion.
