This was a perfect purchase for me.  I hung it on the inside of my walk-in-closet.  Now I don't have to open the board and iron in the laundry room (where there is little space).  Now after I remove the items from the dryer I take them into the closet hang the ones that don't need ironing and have the ironing board ready to quickly press any items that need the touch of the iron, hang them too and the job is finished.  No more looking at a pile of laundry that needs pressing before I hang them up.   Love this Ironing Board and find it sturdy and so convenient.
