Transforming Furniture from the Amish: A Stepstool that Turns Into an Ironing Board

It’s unknown if this is an original Amish design, being that it’s sold online and we’re pretty sure the Amish are not allowed to have websites. But a company called Barn Furniture Mart is selling this stepstool that transforms into an ironing board and is Amish-crafted.

It’s a tad pricey at $370, though it is made out of solid oak. Red oak, to be precise; if you want it made from quarter-sawn white oak or cherry, that adds another $280 to the price.

I think it’s cool that we live in a society where Amish furniture can be sold online, but I do wonder what the markup is.
