So glad I bought this! I have been using this for the past 2 weeks 1) to iron 8 different fabrics from which i cut (with help of the new mat) 200 6" squares for a quilt swap 2) to cut 160 rectangles for a "brick" ispy quilt and 3) to trim the finished quilt top and backing and border and batting. The height is adjustable (unlike my dining room table) so much easier on my back.
