From those days of yore when children were given toys that plugged into wall outlets and heated up to the boiling point of water. Actual working mini cloths iron comes with a 30 inch long metal ironing board, an apron that looks like it would melt if the iron touched it, a pad and cover for the board, and mini plastic cloths pins. This vintage toy most likely is not up to current safety standards and eBay and the seller take no liability for its use or misuse.
