Cutting table
Does anyone have the cutting table that is in this weeks Joanns ad? I am thinking about getting it today since it is 40% off and I can get an aditional 25% off with the coupon. Is it any good?

Had for several years now, could not live with out it....I am sure there are better, but this one is pretty good value for the money....and it is so nice to have the right height for cutting and save your back....

I have one and it is adequate enough. It is stable and saves the back. However, you might need it to be a bit taller or adjust the height if you are tall. I am only 5'7" and would like it to be a little taller. As with a lot of furniture, it seems to be made for short people.

If it's the one that the 2 sides fold down, I have one that was purchased elsewhere. I agree it's a great table. I'm 5'2" and find it a bit tall for long cuts but overall am very happy with it. I also use it as an ironing surface with just a towel folded in half as well as using it for sandwhiching my quilts. I use binder clips on the edges and can do king size quilts on this table with some wiggling around.

Yes, I have two of them also. they are great. Not just for quilting, but great for sewing, crafting, and my worst habit- using it as a clutter-all! But best of all, they fold away, when not in use.

I do not have the table but I do have the cutting board. I have had it for two years and it is already worn out. I use it alot, so I would not buy another one, as I do not feel like I got enough use out of it. Although, for the price you can get it for this weekend, that sounds like a great deal. I just replaced mine with a 35" by 70" Olfa.

Wow, that will be a great discount! I got it with the 40% off coupon a couple of weeks ago and I love it. I'm only 4' 11" so it is a tad high bot for the most part it works great. Certainly is better than trying to cut things on my cutting mat on the floor or always having to use the dining room table. I say go for it and let us know what you think if you get it.
