    I have used it already and it helps to prevent the fabric from stretching.So far,so good.

    My DH's aunt had a dry cleaners sized one she sworw by.
    I've heard it puts a great crease where you want and presses without the stretch and removes all creases you don't want.

    I looked it up on the internet and they sell for over $100.00,so I was happy about the price that I paid.I saw one at another tag sale a while back and she wanted $50.00 for hers.I am glad that I passed it up and got this one for so much less.
