Know before you buy
Yes, the cabinet arrives fully assembled. You will only need to attach the casters and the drawer pulls to get it ready for use.
The machine cut-out measures 25 inches by 13 inches. We recommend measuring your machine's base to ensure it fits within these dimensions before purchasing.
When the drop leaf is fully extended, the cabinet measures 48 inches wide by 39-1/2 inches deep. Ensure you have enough floor space to accommodate this footprint for your projects.
The 'Whisper Quiet' electric lift is designed to accommodate most standard sewing machines. However, because machine sizes vary, verify that your specific model fits within the 25-inch by 13-inch cut-out.
Yes, the cabinet is equipped with easy-roll locking casters. These allow you to maneuver the 193-pound unit across your floor and lock it securely in place once you have found your ideal spot.
The bi-fold door folds completely out of the way, allowing you to sit closer to the cabinet and your machine. This design provides better legroom and comfort during long sewing sessions.
