Mine is stable for a work surface and was the perfect size for the large olfa mat. I used it a lot for cutting. I would not want to sew on it (just my opinion). I have retired mine as I am tall and needed more height. I went to Ikea and purchased a Formica table top and four adjustable legs for less than what that costs. My new setup however does not fold as the Walmart one does.

If you need it to fold - Joannes also has one - that is cheaper. This is like the one I have. It is currently as I post 50% off. Again no shelves - but you can purchase loads of plastic tubs for $150!!!

this is the one that I have; very sturdy. I had also gotten the large mat that covers it. Don't waste you money on the mat because it's not self healing and after a few cuts it acts like your blades are dull but its the matt. I leave the mat on for protection but rarely cut on it due to this reason. Great table though. Easy to put together; just watch putting the rollers on. There are two different types and one set if for the middle and the other is for the outside. If you don't get it right then it's wobbly unless its not folded up. Other than that; very sturdy and easy to cut on.
