Do you have an ironing board?

[UselessFecker]

Rarely use it and it's taking up a lot of space in my small home. Should I chuck it? Is there a smaller alternative?

I don't iron, but my husband irons all his shirts.

Yes, I've had it for about twenty years. It gets used about twice per year because I would rather spend my time on other stuff. My DM and DSis LOVE ironing and are horrified at me 😆 They even iron knickers... good luck to them!!!!

DH's grandmother gave me her ironing board 30 years ago.

Its a heavy wooden one with a chain running underneath to adjust the height. I love ironing on it, it does not move and is very sturdy. Has about 5 covers on it to pad it out😂

It gets used at least once a week, a lot less since I bought myself a Fastpress which is an amazing machine.

I know I own one but but I have no idea where it is. See also, the iron.

Yes. It lives under the sofa. We haven't got an iron at the moment though. 🤣

DD's didn't believe I had one and I do. It was bought in 1992 on Hucknall second hand market for £2 and still going strong 😊

Nope, on the rare occasion something needs ironing I use a streamer instead, much quicker and more effective!

I've always had an ironing board and probably always will. My husband does the ironing, though. About once a week. He's quite particular about how things are ironed, having been in the Forces for a long time, and he does a much better job than I ever could. We squeeze the board in the cupboard that houses the boiler heating thingy.

I have two!
Both used every week at least.

I recently bought my ironing board a lovely new aqua cover from Amazon which looks lovely and I iron probably once a week. I draw the line at bedlinen but most things get a run over with the iron after being line dried, if possible. I just feel more 'finished' and yes, I also iron my knickers. I also wear a lot of cotton and linen in summer so like it to be ironed before I wear it. Funnily enough I hate most other housework but looking at a nice pile of ironed and folded clothes gives me great satisfaction.

Same!! It's giving me anxiety the thought of all these creased clothes 😂

No not an iron.

Yes, I hate creased clothes. I live in a flat so I don't have a tumble drier and can't hang my clothes outside, I have to dry everything on an airer inside. So the creases don't drop out. It all needs ironing. I don't iron pants though!

I don't have an ironing board. I do have an iron, it's used for hemming tape on our son's school trousers - I just put a thick towel on a table top and iron on that.

My DM loves ironing. Seriously. Finds it therapeutic. Weird ....

No, towel on the dining table here too for the rare occasion we have to iron anything.

I iron everything I wear and I'm expected to iron my work iniform. I have one medium sized one with a hanger top that can be hung in my wardrobe.

I have an ironing room too 😃

I have a little sideline thing on the go buying and selling, so this is the 'shop' and ironing room. Nothing gets photographed without being ironed first, and everything is ironed again before I send it out.

And yes, my bedding is ironed too.

My previous ironing board fitted into my cleaning cupboard , bit my new one is bigger, so doesn't. So this is it's new home now. Gets packed away if I have any visitors though.

Yeah we’ve got one but also have ironing mat think that come from Wilkinson

dunhelm do one that fits in back of door

We do, but I don’t use it for clothes. I only use it to iron sewing projects. DP does use it for its intended purpose though cause he wears shirts that need ironed.
