My acrylic table sits in a corner. Waste of 79 dollars.
I have been checking out thrift stores and once in awhile you can find a sewing cabinet.
You cant beat an old sewing cabinet with drawers for 35 dollars.

It's just hard to find the desks now and the new machines with the free arm, the machines won't fit the desks. I have a lightweight(take to class machine)Brother machine that came with a table and so I've gotten used to it. My at home machine is a Viking Emerald 183 and it didn't come with a table.
I learned to sew on a 1960 era Singer, and my Mom had the machine desk. They were the best! I found one for my old Singer machine but it was so flimsy, one of my cats jumped up on the leaf of the table; the whole thing, machine and all tipped over. Of course, the cat only did it once, it scared him so bad he never got up on the table again!!! Chris

Funny this topic should be brought up. I've seen it at Nancy's Notions again just this morning.
They are called Sew Steady Tables and you give them the type machine you have and they send it to fit. Takes about six weeks though to get one.

I also have the table from www.sewingmates.com. It works wonderfully and fits all of my machines with just minor adjustments (and it is very simple to do the adjustments, just a matter of loosening a couple of screws, and moving the legs to higher or lower positions). The company was great to deal with. I am thinking of buying a larger table from them now (I have the 16"x16" size).
