Know before you buy
The Outback XL is specifically engineered for larger machines, supporting weights up to 65 pounds. As long as your machine fits within the 30.5" W x 14.5" D lift opening, it will be fully supported.
The 3-position hydraulic or electric lift allows you to adjust your machine to three distinct heights: free arm, flat bed, and storage. This ensures your sewing surface is perfectly flush with the cabinet top for ergonomic comfort or tucked away securely when not in use.
The rear quilt leaf adds 15.75 inches of depth to your workspace, preventing large quilts or heavy fabrics from pulling off the back of the table. This extra surface area helps maintain even tension and prevents fabric bunching while you work.
The rolling caddy is a separate, mobile storage unit that fits neatly under the cabinet when closed. It provides dedicated space for your threads, hoops, and notions, and can be rolled out to your side for easy access while you sew.
While not strictly required, a custom acrylic insert is highly recommended to create a seamless, flush surface around your machine in the flat bed position. This eliminates the gap between the machine and the cabinet, providing a smooth area for fabric to glide across.
When fully open, the cabinet measures 105.5 inches wide by 37.8 inches deep. When closed, it occupies a much smaller footprint of 52.8 inches wide by 22.1 inches deep, making it a versatile choice for rooms that serve multiple purposes.
