    I found one of those on craigslist a couple of years ago, and I really like it. I wanted one, and watched craigslist religiously until I found one. Didn't pay alot, I think $55. It's very steady.

    You will more than likely have to order this as she doesn't sell to other vendors.

    They are a bit pricey but everyone I know that has ones LOVES it.
    Can you get multiple inserts for the Sewezi?

    I am currently using a fold-up table I purchased at WalMart. It has three height levels and takes up very little room in my vehicle and sewing room. It was also not expensive. Just an aside -- I never try to sew at the speed of light, so I do not get a lot of vibration when using the light weight table.

    Well, have I been hiding under a rock or what??! I never heard of (or thought of) stacking those folding chairs. I can't wait until the next preemie sew-in to try it out. I had to leave early the last time we sewed because of my aching neck and shoulders from working up high on those banquet tables. Thanks Y'all!

    I hadn't thought about looking on Craigs's list. I really do want a Sew-Ezi table.

    I've wanted one for a long time too - saw it at a quilt show years ago, and they offered a good price then, sure wish I hadn't passed it up!

    I have a very small folding plastic table that I picked up at a local home improvement store (like Home Depot or Lowe's) that I use as my vacation sewing table. It's adjustable height, and even my big Janome 6600 fits on it with the extension table.

    The machine doesn't drop down into it, but it was pretty inexpensive. (I want to say it was around $50)

    This is the type of table I got. This is not where I bought it and I'm pretty sure I paid even less but this is exactly what mine looks like: http://www.walmart.com/ip/ICEBERG-EN...tinum/14915898

    It does vibrate when I get going top speed, but if I stay going slower it's fine.

    When you buy a SewEZ, you tell them what machine you have and the table comes with the insert for your machine. I got mine for my Viking Topaz and the piece that makes if flat for when I use the machine for embroidery. You can get several is you want to interchange machines. Can't remember the cost - but cheaper than buying more than one table.

    I have this table and ordered the insert for my Pfaff. I also have a Viking, so had my hubby cut an insert for that machine. It's not perfect, but works fine for me. Or you can get as many inserts as you want with the table for extra $$$$
