I would hold out for one that your machine sets flush in.

What do you think? Should I do it?

This is the one I have and it works for me. I'll try to post a pic of my use of the empty space under the leafs. I got it for 50% off, too.

Mine is by Sauder and works very well, as for being on wheels, comes in very handy when something falls between it and the wall

It took me about 8 hrs to put it all together. I love the fact that it can be folded down and closed all up (mine never has :thumbup: ) With it being on wheels you can easily move it around to work on any side. Right now I have three machines on it, my Bernina, my 12 yr old Babylock serger and my everyday Singer! They are all real close buddies! :lol:

I found a custom made sewing cabinet on Freecycle. The table is 8 feet long and has a place for sewing machine in the middle. On either sides are 8 drawers for lots of goodies. The neat part is the sewing cabinet comes apart in 3 pieces to transport. Love it!

Oh, Tigger, to be in your shoes! A Koala would be so nice to have. A sewing table and comfy chair are at the top of my wish list.

Also, that Walmart deal with machine and table for 149 would be a super deal for a beginner, wouldn't it?
