Does the iron rest push in/under the board for storage?

It does not. It is welded, it's a continuation of the board itself. The only dynamic parts are the legs.

You may be able to remove the iron rest with a blowtorch perhaps. This iron rest is not designed to be removed so without heavy equipment, you would be unable to remove it. I was skeptical about this feature and after purchasing this ironing board, the iron rest is one of the things I love about this ironing board. It is a very good safety feature for me and ensure i or my cats will not knock the iron off the board or burn ourselves with an upright iron sitting on the board. I love this feature.

Yes, it is. The magnets are under the checker inlay. It's great too, if your board gets bumped the isn't ruined, the pieces stay in place.

Mine does. The iron can get in the way a little when putting the ironing board away but it's not a problem. You just put the board away first.

Because of the location of the linen shelf when board is closed, I don't think it will work. The hooks on the iron holder has no way to connect with the rounded end of your ironing board

Yes, and its heavier and sturdier than the flimsy ones you find in the local stores. Very well made. I'm picky and I think this ironing board was worth every penny.

Hi there. I had the same problem too. Until I discovered that if you stand with the iron rest end of the ironing board in front of you. Place your feet on the ends of the legs. And very easily slide/pull the iron rest toward you. Yes. That's it. Then when you're done just push it back closer to the board. I just love this ironing board. And yes. The covers are thin but I put a piece of that polyester batting (cut to shape) under the cover to plump it up a little bit. And I use snug straps/sheet tighteners to make the cover lay nice + flat + tight. They're available on Amazon. Have a good week! Hi there. I had the same problem too.

No, it does not. It is rather disappointing to me as my previous boards purchased had the sleeve ironing boards andthe boards were more substantial than these. Assuming this board was just like the previous boards I had purchased for anotherhome, if I had realized the quality before the carpenters installed it, I would have searched elsewhere for a better one.

The iron rest is not removable in design. I am sure there are industrious people who can blow torch it off, but it is intended not to be removable. As I mentioned in my review of the ironing board, I thought too it was a daffy feature that would not add value and just reduce the length of the ironing surface -- I was way wrong. That iron rest is now one of my favorite features of the ironing board. No more worrying about the iron tipping over when I pause in my ironing, no more worries about the cats jumping on the board and knocking it over or hurting themselves -- this is a terrific feature and now i would be unable to live without it.

The iron rest is welded onto the board. You can remove it at your peril,I guess.

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.

No sorry. It's just the board itself with a cover sheet over it. The back of the ironing board attaches to the top of the door but other than that, there is no place to store the iron.

My tray is mounted under a compressed board that is one inch thick. I've had no problems with it.

I have mine in a horizontal position and believe that it does function as expected. Be careful not to over-tighten it during installation. I had done so and notice a slight bow to the board. Loosening alleviated the issue.

We store our ladder on these (and then put a few things on top of the ladder). The supports do shift quite a bit when we put the ladder up and bring it down, so I would assume boards would shift as well. Similar to what was suggested earlier...I don't see why a few well-placed drilled holes and some appropriate hardware (or even zipties) wouldn't hold your boards/planks in place. Good luck!

No, it sits over the lip of the storage box. There are hinges on back side of the storage box in this same place.

Yes, but not very much. What i like about this iron and ironing board holder is that it is much sturdier than any I could find locally.
