I bought one of these about a year ago - not from Amazon, but from a local JoAnn Fabrics outlet. I used this item exclusively to press the sleeves of mens' dress shirts - 100% cotton, which calls for lots of steam and high ironing temperatures. At first, everything was fine. The metal frame is well-made and it folds nicely, and the padding and cover are also very substantial. But after several months, the ironing surface - which is made of particle board - began to lose its rigidity and to bend downward from a point roughly one-third of the way in from the narrow end of the board. Today it snapped in two at that point. An examination of the break reveals that the particle board ironing surface is completely unfinished or sealed in any way I could see, its only protection from steam and moisture being some contact paper applied over its surface. This product is probably good enough for low volume, light duty low steam ironing, but it is not up to snuff for the high-heat, high steam and high volume ironing I do. That's why today I am shopping for a replacement.

I've purchased two of these....should have learned the first time. Both of them broke in the exact same spot. The particle board just cannot handle any sort of pressure and easily snaps. I will NOT be buying this kind of sleeve board again.
