A full-size board needs a corner to live in. This one works on a table or a counter instead, 30 inches long by 12 inches wide and only 4.75 inches high with the legs out. Folded, the swivel hook lets it hang behind a door.
Both the deck and the legs are steel mesh, which keeps the board light enough to lift with one hand and lets steam pass through the surface rather than collecting underneath the cover. A fiber pad sits over the mesh and a cotton cover goes over that, giving a press surface with some give.
The deck runs 30 inches deep and 12 inches wide, enough length to lay a shirt front flat and work across it without constant repositioning. Standing 4.75 inches high, it raises the work just clear of the table so an iron can be set down without the cord dragging a cup off the edge.
A swivel hook built into the frame turns to catch the back of most residential and commercial doors, which is where a board of this size belongs between uses. Folded flat it also slides into a pantry, a cabinet, or a closet gap, so a dorm room or a townhouse loses no floor at all.
Single large canvas tote, 22 inches wide, with a vinyl-coated interior and long reinforced handles that clear a shoulder.
Folding bamboo drying rack with 11 dowels and a flat shelf for sweaters, opening to 29.25 inches wide.
