I have this version of the BabyLock Espire (I think there was a smaller machine produced earlier with the same name). I am really, really wanting a sewing table that I can drop the machine in to have it at table height. The Gidget 2 seems like a good value and works with my space.

Will this machine fit the table with the custom insert? I am thinking of using SewVacDirect because they offer the table and the authorized Arrow brand insert (Connecting Threads make the inserts themselves and it didn't seem there was a guarantee of a really good custom fit).

Any advice would be appreciated.

You need to measure your machine (without the extension table shown in the picture). This sewing table will accommodate sewing machines no larger than 23 1/2" Wide x 12 1/2" Deep. The clear insert is cut to fit around the free arm part. If you are in doubt, call them and they will help you.

I have this table and 2 inserts. One for my Juki and the other for my Viking. I use the Juki most in it. I've been very pleased with it.

Katier825--thank you. Have you found the table to be wobbly at all? I did read one review that said at higher speeds there was some bouncing. I think I probably sew a bit slower than most people (I use the medium or sometimes the slow speed and have never sewn at the high speed) so I'm hoping that wouldn't be a problem for me.

Mine came with a sew steady made insert

I hardly ever notice bouncing and I sew fast most of the time when I'm piecing.

I'm glad you weighed in. I remember you had one before trading her in for a Dreamweaver I believe. I'm actually now seriously considering the Arrow Florie cabinet because there is more space around the machine. I just can't find any reviews other than one that said the wicker is more like plastic laces.
