I bought one at WalMart and they put it together for me at no cost! Its a good table and quite sturdy. Have used it for several years and really like it. When I bought mine I got it on sale for $89, that's how long its been.

Thanks for all the feedback. I'll be in the market for a new table soon and have been looking around and pricing. This thread certainly has helped!

I have the Sauder sewing cabinet from Walmart for several years and love it. Bought a craft center from Joann's for 199.00 and love it. Has locking casters and doesn't move. I have been very happy with both items.

I got a Sauder (like the Walmart one) sewing cabinet off of CL for my daughter and paid only $45 for it. She's just beginning to sew and she needed a cabinet for the sewing machine I got her for her birthday. It's nice and sturdy and I didn't even have to put it together.

Yes, I would love to hear from you as to how you like the Sauder sewing table and how difficult it was to assemble.

Haven't read all the posts but I bought one of the tables from Wal Mart - put it together myself. Very pleased with it. Sturdy, lots of storage space. Keep one machine on top and one underneath. Good value for the money.

In terms of purchasing something to use with a sewing machine, stability is the #1 priority for me. It's not nice to sew on a table that shakes, rattles and rolls with your machine!
#2 priority is a flat working space. This is relatively easily (and inexpensively) achieved by creating a styrofoam surround for your machine. See these Youtube videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g14go...ure=plpp_video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAS25...ure=plpp_video |
