I just received my westex compact ironing board by Laundry solutions, I pulled it up, now I can't close it. How do I close it?

Mid way to one side in the back, there is a lever; press down on this, and the small silver "tube" will hook onto a clip. If I can figure out how to send a photo, I will.

On the bottom of the board there is a 3" handle along the side. Press it upward and the board will close. Just be careful to hold it so it won't fall on your toes.

I don't know what a built in ironing board is but the clips are actually small. If they are too big, Just sew a tuck in the elastic. Hope this helps. Sandi (I am happily retired as well!)

Hi Sandra Neatness ironing board is easy to use & store. The top lifts up for easy access & the rollers make storing a snap.

I having been using the ironing board for over the year, I also sew and have had no trouble. One time I had to tighten the swivel knob under the board, which was not a problem. I love having this aboard so handy. The only complaint I have is that it is really hard to iron tablecloths due to size constraints, but not much of a complaint. Enjoy and happy sewing.

I put a towel over mine a steamed it with the iron. Try it with a color you probably won't use 1st that's what I did.

The iron holder cannot easily be removed, it is welded on. I could be cut off. Love my boards, wish I had purchased on years ago.

There is a plastic clip at the bottom of the of the right side of the ironing board the you release it to come down and afterwords when you push it back up it will snap back in place.

No. I get mine out easily, but if you find it challenging you can lift the ironing board portion up since it's on a hinge.

Just barely 'tap' that little button at the side of the top step. Don't force, just a 'baby-touch' moves it to the folding position. That's all it takes. Then it will fold closed again. Write back if you can't get it. It's easier than it seems! (That little button moves a lever.) Got it yet? :) I hope so. :)

You can build one easily with any set of instructions off the net with wood from your local Lowes or Home Depot but I would seriously consider using another product besides Carl's Blackout. It sounds great in theory but when you receive the product it contains permanent wrinkles and marks. They sell damaged product on their site with the exact issues that I received buying from this amazon link. There are permanent folds and wrinkles running throughout the piece from obvious improper storage. I was told the wrinkles will come out after being stretched for a couple months but of course this did not come to be true. The longer it's stretched the less tight it becomes and the wrinkles appear regardless of ironing or running it through the dryer and all the other tricks that are suggested to remove marks which should not have been in it in the first place.

To get past the "horribly wrinkled" stage, soak in water, wring or blot and then hang it up. Most irons have a low setting that works well for the finishing touches. When on vacation, I am usually satisfied with rinse-and-wear.

It is not a problem for me, I've had other irons that operate the same way. It does go off by itself in a short while if not used. If uncomfortable with this you can unplug the iron. I love this iron, and I do a lot of ironing.

didn't keep mine long enough to have problems. Bought my at a local store and took it back the next week. I now have a Rowenta that doesn't have the auto off feature. I'm a quilter and want the iron hot when I need to use it. Here is a previous comment I made on this iron: I'm sorry I bought this iron. It has auto shutoff which I don't like but have gotten used to since all irons are like that. My major beef with this is after is shuts off and you move it to start it again you have to move it to the setting you want. It doesn't return to the setting you had before. I don't turn my irons off, when I'm done I unplug them and when I plug them back it to use again, you have to reset the setting. Shouldn't have to constantly reset it.
