We live in an apartment so space is a premium. We bought this to replace a counter top ironing board which was annoying because you had to clear your entire kitchen counter to use it.  This hangs nicely over our laundry closet door. Its a little wobbly but then again, the door is not a standard thickness door.  So the board moves around a bit as you iron because the door moves but all in all, it makes use of dead space and it easy to flip up and down for use.  Also wish it had the over-the-door iron holder built in as well...
