I ordered this item and it does not sit flat on the floor. It rocks around when ironing. Am I doing something wrong?

I just received mine and noticed there is very slight rocking and the 4th leg is not touching the floor like the other 3 but not big enough gap to put a book under, thought maybe its a safety design feature but not sure. I may get a better idea once I start using it.

You're not doing anything wrong. Some of them come uneven. I need to prop one leg up with a book to keep it level. I really should have returned it, but it seemed too much trouble to do that.

don't know, mine is fine...is your floors level, is the board level when fully deployed...if not with the board, then you have a defective board. throw a level on it.

I just had the same problem with one of these that I bought at Walmart. One of the legs on mine stood off the floor and I returned it. I propped it with books for an afternoon but for this price you should get an ironing board that stands up on its own. I was just checking them on here to see if the one from Walmart was a fluke but apparently it is just a problem with the ironing board. It would have been perfect otherwise.

I have never had a problem with my ironing board rocking. It sits on a tile floor. If it were to sit on carpet, I am sure it, like any other ironing board would rock. I love mine and it gets lots of use.

We have the same issue. I was thinking about ironing the felt on a low setting and seeing if that helped.

It could be if you can keep it at safe place and always have access to it. I always just spread it anywhere I like on the floor and use it just like ironing board. There us no difference except that you don't get to stand. Thanks

Hello Donna. We never had that problem but maybe it is off level. Try on a different surface or maybe stairway got bent. Good luck!

I have the 4 sorter but it doesn't have an ironing too like shown in this picture. Mine was super easy to assemble, and quick.

I turned mine all around and felt every section... the only crease I feel is from the sewn sections, but nothing like you described. If you aren't in an immediate rush, return it for another one--it doesn't seem right.

Other than checking the legs. The levelness (?) of the floor is key. My table is quite stable even on a slightly rough surface. You might want to find the best spot for the table. If the table is unstable on an even surface, it might be defective. I wish that I could help further. Good luck.

No its not but you can try flat ironing it on a low temperature like I did nothing happened to mine.

For me, one side (the one with the tail) had a lot of wrinkles but the other side didn't have any, so I just used the side with no wrinkles. If they both have bad wrinkles, I suppose you could slide an ironing board underneath the chromakey (without standing the board up), and iron it the same way you'd iron clothes.

I have the same issue, it takes a little bit of finessing and turning to get it to sit level. It works really well.

Not sure, Gary. I expect you could try to iron it on a moderate setting. I have had it for 6 months and it makes me happy every day!

There must be something wrong with the foot-raising mechanism, or maybe you have a puffy/fluffy ironing board (?). But if the first, take it back, get a refund. The one I had almost set fire to the ironing board in it's down position, when the thermostat didn't turn it off - luckily my dog smelled burning and warned me ! Hope you resolve the matter.

I have found it to be the same as using a regular iron. For cotton, use the high setting; if polyester you may try the middle setting first. I always use steam, it seems to add to the quality of the ironing job. I think you'll be happy with it.

You must have a bad one. Mine does not. Actually this is by far the best Iron I have ever used. Send them a note.

In its highest position the ironing surface is 38" above floor level. It is well-made, and if you have a bad back you will love how easily it clicks into position when you are setting it up. Best ironing board I've ever used.

No , it should not be . It should be solid and smooth. I would return it and ask for another one .

Twila; I can understand your complaint. I came to expect this unit isn't like a regular iron and due to the size of this unit dabbed it onto the fabric instead of gliding, and got the same result.
