Rid Jid Wonderland!

[spaniel50]

I had one of these and left it when I moved. I found this one today at Goodwill for $4.99. I was one happy customer! Now i can sit down and Iron again! Of course using my grandmother's Hoover Steam iron with the stainless soleplate. This is ironing heaven!

So did you score both the board and the stool? They're both great finds on their own.

Rid-Jid Wonderland

No, I had the stool for over 25 years. I bought a 3 tier yellow cart and step stool all at the same time. I am going out today and try and find a good pad and cover for the board. I had been using one of those cheap ironing boards with the non-stick cover and sponge padding.
I left my Rid-Jid when I moved 2 years ago. It had an end that had wings to make the end square so you could iron flat things and a pull out iron rest. You could sit down and iron like this board but was more deluxe. I should have kept it but I didn't realize you could no longer buy a Rid-jid board anymore.

Wish I could find one

I am on my 2nd POS from Kmart. Rust flaking off the bottom. Plus the covered "feet" are on an angle, not horizontal like yours. I usually iron on hardwood floor so I can watch TV during, and they always scuff the floor. I have to put kitchen throwrug underneath, then it slides! Issues...

Love your floral pattern, incidentally. Mom & Dad had wallpaper like that in the dining room in the 50s!
