Summary: JUNK!
Comment: I used this little board once for about an hour. By the end of that time the unsupported front end was bent almost to the tabletop. The back end where the iron rests was almost as bad. I used its predecessor (of unknown brand but the same design) for 20 years before it literally disintegrated. This Polder is so poorly made and flimsy it's ready for the landfill after its first use. Academy Bob hit the nail on the head.

Comment: Nice and stable ironing board. Great for the size, I use it on my bed all the time and it works great.

Summary: ironing board hose job
Comment: This ironing board promised to be just what the doctor (in this case the academy) ordered. It was lightweight, compact and easily stored.

It also broke in half on the first effort at ironing a pair of dress white pants. The front end is so weak, probably due to the 1/4 inch press wood construction, that with very little pressure and no effort, the poorly supported ironing surface just simply could not withstand the normal pressure of ironing.

They now carry them at the exchange and I am putting forth my best effort to try to dissuade the cadets at the academy regarding this product.

Summary: good for people who don't have to iron a lot
Comment: lucky for me I only have about a dozen things that need to be ironed. I do not recommend it to someone who has a whole family to iron for as it's not large enough. I was surprised by how sturdy it was though. A good deal for someone who has space issues such as myself.
