Has anyone got one of these? Mine came today and I got two huge loads of ironing done in 45 minutes. I did it so quickly I got DH clothes out the cupboard and ironed all of them too.

I really do recommend them if anyones thinking about getting one.

What is this 'ironing' of which you speak?

I've been looking for one of these for a few years because ironing irritates my wrist, elbow & back. However in the end I just gave up ironing!

Is it worth £80 horseshoe?

I think so. This morning I freshened up all of my furniture, did the curtains and my bedsheets in about half hour. Plus my ironing was done in super quick time.

Also it skims over those logos on DH and kids t-shirts which I have to be careful with on an iron.

Plus if you want to freshen up a top you have only worn for a couple of hours, this will do it without the hassle of re-washing it.

Brilliant. You can even stretch out the arms and run the steam down them to get that line.

Oh god yes, the sheets, another of DPs odd quirks, he likes the sheets ironed (2m square bed)

How do you do sheets? Just lay them on bed?

My question too - not everything goes on a hanger.

Whilst it's on the bed, or could you just hold it up and do it?
