The New York Times Wirecutter recommended this board, and it is certainly the best board I've used. Not to mention their customer service is great. I received a board and about two months after using it, I noticed a slight defect. I emailed and about two days later I found a brand new board at my door. I didn't request a new board, nor did I expect one but here I am. Besides the customer service, the board is very flat, the fabric is taught, it is sturdy, and the board is wide. The iron stand is a great addition as well. The price is great, especially when on sale. I can't recommend enough.
