Arrow Sewing Classic Furniture “Judy” Sewing Cabinet: Portable, Folding, Compact, Locking Wheels, with Storage Bin and Hydraulic Machine Lift-White

So I bought this cabinet for mainly two reasons. First one was for the quality of Arrow Sewing products that I knew of in the past and the second reason is I have a Juki Mini sewing machine which is all metal and very heavy and I wanted a good cabinet that would easily retract with a push. It’s a manuel hydraulic lift which is easy to use. It took my husband about 2 hours to put together- I suggest to read the instructions several times to get each part installed correctly. he is a handy person but mechanism can easily be installed crooked- We had problems with installing the Manuel hydraulic lift and got it turned around and crooked so It would not work correctly so we Attempted to call tech support that the company listed in the Manuel. That was a big joke. We got redirected twice to a salesperson for life insurance. The third time we got a message to leave our name and number and they will return your call. 5 days have passed and still no call back. Since then we finally figured out the correct placement of the lift and it works properly now. I am happy with the cabinet and how well it performs for me. Value for the money is good- I was looking at cheaper cabinets but saw that the reviews were negative on storing the machine inside the cabinet- which for me is important since I live in a small place and have a heavy machine. So take that into consideration when deciding on a cheaper cabinet. The warranty on the cabinet is great.

Been looking for a sewing table that has a lift and isn’t insanely expensive and super mobile and this was perfect. Very easy to assemble and came with spares. Very good quality and makes a huge difference from the cheaper one I previously owned that had the same style shelf snapped off— This is incredibly sturdy and you wont have to worry about it falling apart. Great purchase I feel like it will last me a long time.

I should’ve given it 3 stars, but it’s decent quality & i bought it for the Lyft. I figured I’m getting older I don’t need to be carrying a sewing machine when this one you push down. It turns out that is the feature!! There is one little box like area in the door, and that’s it, that’s all the storage! When the machine is pushed down there isn’t room to store anything else! I can’t afford bandicoot, which gives a little extra storage. This is a little expensive & the only outstanding feature is the Lyft! I don’t think the chair stores in the door. Either. For the money you could find a better cabinet with storage but it won’t have the Lyft!

Update 2 - friendly Customer Service quickly responded with a new door. Very grateful fir the quick turn around. This is a good buy. Stows away small, strong for quilt work and backed by the seller. Update - Customer support was quick to respond and said they’ll send a solution within 48 hrs. Yeah! Gave back a star. While it’s excellent as a space saving sewing center I have to downgrade my review. The front door fell off (2 mo. old) leaving big holes in the pasteboard where the screws went. Waiting on support to advise a solution. Unless I can find a temporary solution to support the top swing door (which rests on the front door), it’s unusable for sewing at this time. It was used in a carpeted room for a quilt project. I don't know if either figured into the particle board falling out at the screw points. If it did, then that’s a design flaw. Replaced a bookcase with a small foot print space-wise. Opens up large enough to support making a large quilt. It took me longer than an hour to assemble but I like puzzles.

Assembly instructions are clear and it is easy to assemble, but quite a few parts. Took me at least 90 minutes. Screw holes for hinges weren’t pre-drilled, so having a drill helps. The lift mechanism doesn’t quite go low enough for the sewing machine to rest under the cover, so I will have to remove it and drop the lift guides down an inch or so. Its a nice small cabinet.

I purchased this Judy sewing table along with another piece. I tend to avoid sewing in general b/c it isn't a good setup for me. NO LONGER! I am thrilled with this purchase. Raising and lowering the machine takes a little bit of muscle. I have hardwood floors, so it rolls nicely into position for sewing. It is also very easy to close up. Putting it together took a couple of hours; however, the directions were clear and thorough. I was slow and methodical about putting it together. I am very happy with my purchase.

Love my Judy cabinet! It works very well & is a great way to store my sewing machine! It’s sturdy, fits well in our RV, & is perfect for what I needed!

I loved the concept and price point of this sewing cabinet that I had planned to double as a small craft desk and sewing desk BUT, the picture was a bit deceiving with it being white cabinet in the photo on white background it looked like it had a white back to it but it is open. The instructions were not very clear and the lift was horrible to install. The entire thing is off center and the front door isn't flush/ level. Further frustration is that because it is made with pressed board rather than wood it's very easy to ruin it w/ a mallet to try to square it up. Lastly, the lift is really hard to press to lift I'm no wilting violet and it takes all my upper body strength to activate it. For the price I expected particle board but with the brand I had expected a better system.
