Abstract: A foldable ironing board installation comprises an ironing board member, hinged to a lower panel member and connected thereto by a gas spring strut. The ironing board member can occupy a generally horizontal working position and an upright stowed position where it is coplanar with the lower panel member. An iron retention housing is arranged behind the lower panel member and stowed position of the ironing board member, and includes a surface which is inclined away from the member and to provide a rest for an iron so that the latter will rest against a wall of the housing.
