After searching the internet and reading numerous reviews, this is the table top ironing board I chose. It is light weight and used for quick pressing of garments as I sew them; seams, darts, collars, etc. I prefer a well padded board so added more padding and a new cover. Small elastic suspenders keep the cover firmly in place. There is a metal bar that keeps the board folded and a device to hang it on a door for storage. A metal rack that slides out at the end of the board is available to rest your iron on.
Pros and cons: the ironing board is light, it slides around on the table. I use either a non-skid pad (used under throw rugs) or bath towel to stabilize the board. The slide out iron rack does not feel sturdy enough to hold the iron and concern that the weight of the iron may tip the board. This board will not replace my full size, old fashioned, heavy wooden board for actual ironing. Shirts and dresses overwhelm the size of this board. Am I glad I bought it? YES, would I buy it again? YES. It is perfect for sewing projects.

Good Concept, Quality Control Lacking
I like that this board is made of metal. Other reviews indicated that there is a piece that is supposed to snap into place when it is opened, to prevent it from accidentally folding up again. Unfortunately, on my particular ironing board, THIS TAB SIMPLY WOULD NOT STAY IN PLACE WHEN I TRIED TO SNAP IT INTO PLACE. See the first image, and compare it to a close-up of the product image of this listing. I will also add that the cover of this board is relatively thin cotton, much inferior to the cover of the full-sized ironing board that I used to own. I have read that Amazon returns often end up in landfills, and I do not iron very often anyway--so, I will keep it and find a way to make it work. To make it work, I have added three pieces of knotted paracord, to attach the frame in the open position at three different points. See second image. I gave this a three because other reviews suggest that only some of these, not all of them, have the referenced quality control problem.
