Several reviews mentioned the cons of this device but mine came exactly as described. Maybe there was a bad batch that passed quality control. My mom asked me if there was anything I could do to keep the cord out of the way of her ironing board. I used this clip, a Bic pen tube, some twisted 12 gauge wire, and some black spray paint to create a rod that presses against the end of her ironing board, holding the cord up and out of the way. This clip worked great for my purposes and I was so impressed with its versatility that I ordered two more. I'm not even thinking of using them, but I just know that they will come in handy for some future projects.
