Do you own an iron?

[Rebelda]

I quite like ironing. It's one of those jobs that is done when it's done, not like washing up. And I associate it with getting ready to go out or on holiday I have a cordless one which was a game changer.

It’s the other way round for me!
Love washing up, hate ironing.

We should probably set up an Urban 75 Chores Exchange.

My wife claims, with no basis in fact as far as I’m concerned, that you should never iron a shirt right way out - only if you’ve turned it inside out is it safe from whatever toxic iron-ghoulies she’s worried about (I think she mentioned something about brown water marks from the steam outlets)

But then you'll have canyons in your sleeves rather than creases.

I have the one I bought when we moved here in 1996 - only gets used for dressmaking, and very, very occasionally for clothes I'm just about to wear. I also have a tiny 'craft iron' which gets used slightly more. I recently bought a new go-faster ironing board cover which is very good.

I have one, a warm remnant from childhood. I have no need to use it nowadays, so no ironing board to go with it.

We own an iron but I’ve never used it.

Is it still plugged in?

I've got a soldering iron as well if that counts.

Yes, use it every morning. I like having a freshly crisp shirt for work

Must take ages with a soldering iron.
