Popping in to add on to this (because I’m glad someone brought up how bad Teflon is - thank you): Teflon is also an absolute no-no if you have pet birds! The fumes given off when it gets hot can and will kill them!!
I love that companies can produce chemicals that don’t break down, cause a ton of cancers, and are in everyone’s blood globally for the last 50 years :)
Understandable, due to the heat of the iron against the teflon sheet. If the temp goes above 480°F, then the Teflon can start breaking down & releasing PFOAs. Luckily, American Teflon stopped using the specific PTFE that produced PFOAs in 2013, but I doubt those ironing covers are US made

You won’t get sick from having this in your house, but I very strongly recommend not purchasing anything with teflon in/on it for personal use
Amazing:)
I don’t want anyone or their pets dying and it sucks that a lot of the dangers still aren’t widely known. 🥲
