Crossword Genius

From armchair one declines to be pressed (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ironed

'be pressed' is the definition.
('ironed' can be similar in meaning to 'pressed')

'from armchair one declines' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'IRONED' is hidden in the letters of 'armchair one declines'.

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for ironed that I've seen before include "Removed creases" , "Smoothed clothes using heavy object" , "Had an evening out" , "prepared for 23 [WARDROBE] ?" , "Given a press" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
