Bartnelli by Rorets Ironing Board Made in Europe | Iron Board with 4 Layered Cover & Pad, Height Adjustable up to 36" Features A Safety Iron Rest, 4 Steel Legs, for Laundry Room or Dorm Use (43x14)

My heavy metal ironing board of many years finally gave up the ghost. It got harder and harder to unfold/fold, finally getting stuck in the open position. That made it difficult to store in a closet. On to Amazon to search for a replacement. This one appeared to be a good buy, so it went into the cart. When it arrived in its shipping box, I was surprised as how light it appeared to be. Out of the box, it was much smaller and lighter than the older one. That had me wondering how sturdy it is. First, it fit into the closet storage space with room to spare. Great!Using it for the first time was an excellent experience. Unfolding/folding was a snap! The mechanism is very easy to use; and, as you unfold, there are several choices in height. Fully open, it comes up to my waist, making for a comfortable ironing position. It is built sturdy enough to alleviate any concern that it might easily tip over in use. The iron holder on the end is something new to me. I am used to standing the iron when not in use and, so far, I still do. I'll likely get around to using the holder, because by doing so I remove any opportunity of touching the very hot ironing face. In addition, the included board cover seems to be of good quality.All in all, a very nice package at a reasonable price.

Nice ironing board. I like the adjustable legs so I can iron while sitting or standing. Good length and width for most clothing and easy to open and close. Thin and doesn’t take up much space

Good but not built for long term use. Specifically, the orange lock that holds the legs in place when you erect the ironing board. The lock piece is made of thin plastic. It hasn't broken on mine yet, but it will one of these days based on how brittle it feels and the sound it makes when I unlock it. If this were a metal piece, I would feel more confident.

I've had this ironing board several months and simply love it!! Lightweight; easy up-and-down; easy adjust; great features ... well worth the extra price!

I was pleasantly surprised, it’s easy to put up, sturdy and a little smaller than expected.i. It has its own cover and easy to store. All good!

It’s an ironing board so not something to get too excited over, but this is perfect. I spent like an hour looking at different ironing boards off Amazon and reading reviews. Pulled the trigger on this one and it’s exactly what I wanted. Folds super smooth and its very steady, and the board itself has the perfect amount of cushion for ironing.

I have a fantastic ironing board made by Reliable. It is very long, adjusts to very tall, has a piece that provides a squared off end, closes magnetically, has a sturdy platform that holds my steam generator, and is rock steady. It is also huge.In addition to using it to iron, I also use it to fold laundry. I mainly only iron my sheets, so I don't iron every time I do laundry. I was looking for something compact that I could use to fold my regular laundry, that would take less space, hang on the rod in the closet, and be less heavy to lug around.This one was one of the few that didn't have an attached iron rest, and was tall enough that I wouldn't have to bend over when folding, so I ordered it.It is okay for my purposes, which is to fold some clothes, stack them off to the side, then go put them away and repeat with the next batch of clothes. It is light, hangs well in the closet, and takes up WAY less floor real estate than my good ironing board.I wouldn't want to use this for ironing, though. The lightness that allows me to hang it on the rod, and easily move it around, means that it is less steady than my good board. It is pretty easy to make it wobble. I think ironing would involve holding the board steady with one hand while ironing with the other, or maybe bracing the board against your body, and only ironing toward yourself - mind the steam!I also think it is overpriced for what it is. It was one of the less expensive compact boards, but still is not worth the cost. I once got a $30 ironing board at a big box store for $3 due to an mis-ring that I didn't notice until later, and that board was more stable than this one.You can get a much better board for less money than this one if you are okay with a full size board. If you need the compact size, I would consider spending a bit more money, or looking at a wall hanging fold-away before buying this one, as you can do better for your money.I don't hate it, and it isn't the worst ironing board I have ever used, but it is FAR from the best.

Board could be a bit wider. If your iron doesn’t fit in the holder, you can bend the tabs down a bit and it will. Im sure they designed it that way.It does wobble pretty bad on Carpet, but a bit more sturdy on hard floor. My carpet is pretty thick and high. So it wobbled bad.
