Help! An Informal Survey

I have been thinking lately about getting a new ironing board.  Wanna see why?  Take a look...

 Because while it looks okay from the top, with a new-ish cover from Target (Must be at least the 7th or 8th one), the rest of it is pretty ugly.
                           Rust and dust and yucky stuff...
                             Even the feet look pretty worn and dirty...
And where the legs join is gross too.  Now you might think all this is just cosmetic, but this ironing board was bought in 1978 in a Sears catalog store in Columbia Missouri.  We weren't even married then and my then future husband was getting his undergrad degree.  This ironing board bangs and pops quite a bit when the hot steam hits it.  I am also not a great fan of the legs/feet on this model.  So, here is where I need some help.  I went on line to research ironing boards and came away more confused than ever.  Answer me these questions:
1. Do you love, or even like your ironing board?
2. Where did you purchase it?
3.Would you recommend it to someone else?
I am serious here people...the on line reviews have been less than helpful, so I am turning to you, my followers for help.
Step up and speak up.  Can't wait to see what you all have to say on this.
Happy Wednesday!
