"give up ironing" human, Yes!As a child I had sheets, and everything else, that the maid ironed.No more.I have irons as collector items(including the TipToe)that are unused (& available).Do you also agree that making a bed in the morning just to unmake it in the evening is a waste of time?

Oh, I MUST make the bed as soon as I get out of it. 
If I die during the day, and the family goes into my house, at least they'll say , (among other things), " Gee, he always made the bed. Also, if anyone comes to the hou7se, I. like them to see a properly made bed (hospital corners) . I also have a beautiful 4 poster bed, I like it to always look perfect. (snob that I am), lol
IF/WHEN I have company, I'll wash sheets. dry them on the clothesline, when possible, and put them right on the beds. Mu guests love that fresh, crisp smell. Sometimes, they wake up late, due to the comfort. I NEVER iron sheets. Shirts, linens, a different story. | ||

So Matt, where do you store that close press when you aren't using it? Seems like it takes up a big footprint, but maybe not. | ||

It stands on its end for storage.... I've stole a pic from Google to use as an example...

Oh, that's nifty! Sounds like it would be a nice change to traditional ironing. | ||

Oh my, I have iron lust!
I hate ironing. HATE IT. But in a job where both myself and my hubby need to wear shirts, it's a necessary evil at times. I was looking at this not too long back and remembering the QVC demo. My friends disabled Mum also had one as she found it easy to use. Interesting to see the results, thanks for posting! | ||

Iron? Do what? Nope. I wash clothes and fold them. I don't have much of anything that wrinkles so why bother? I rarely make my bed and don't iron any of my bedding. No, I'm not a slob, I wear clean clothes every day, shower every morning, and wash my sheets weekly. I just have better things to do than iron clothes that are just going to get wrinkled as soon as I sit down! I may iron the pillow cases on the guest beds so they look fresh and not slept in but not often. Only in the summer with cotton sheets.
