Kangaroo Sewing Furniture - Kangaroo & Joey II Cabinet in Ash White

Love, love, love this sewing cabinet with joey table. I wanted to replace my old sewing cabinet to accomodate my serger sewing machine along with my regular sewing machine. These two cabinets did the trick. Plus they hold all my sewing notions, fabric and all kinds of goodies! I am very happy with the beautiful look of the furniture in my sewing room and all the accomodating drawers (4 in all). I especially love the attached table in the back to hold the fabric as you sew. Especially if you sew quilts or large pieces of fabric. Very nice feature. The teak finish is beautiful (comes in 3 colors - white, gray & teak). This is not cheap furniture and you will not be sorry you purchased. I will say it took quite a bit of time putting the cabinets together so be prepared for a bit of a project. It wasn't hard, but very time consuming. I did it by myself (i'm 64 and had no problems), but it will go much better with two people. If you are on the fence about buying it you won't be sorry. It comes in 4 heavy boxes. Take your time, read the instructions carefully and you will do just fine. In the end you will have a beautiful sewing cabinet ready for your sewing projects!

Very happy with the purchase - sewing cabinet is solid as a rock, arrived in pristine condition, and I expect my girlfriend will get many years if not decades of use from it. Huge upgrade over her last setup, and she couldn’t be happier with it. As good as the product is, the part of the purchase that really shined was the customer service. The team at icanhelpsew.com was nothing short of spectacular working with me on the purchase. During the COVID age, we’ve all run into shortages and backordered items. This was a fairly major purchase for us, and it took a bit of a leap of faith to shell out this kind of money on something that had this long of a lead time. But we did, and that was when the magic started. I had the good fortune to work with Amanda at icanhelpsew, and the customer service she provided set the gold standard for others to follow: 1) Every other vendor we checked with gave us a three to four month “maybe” lead time. icanhelpsew had the cabinet in our hands in eight weeks flat. 2) Within MINUTES (like under five minutes!) of placing the order, I received a phone call from Amanda to let me know the situation with the backorder status (which Amazon did not mention in the item listing), explain the process they were using to fill the order (which is unique to the back order situation), and to provide me with a solid delivery date (versus the “maybe”s I was getting from other vendors). 3) I continued to receive timely email and phone call updates throughout the waiting period. Any time there was a change in status (even on the manufacturer end), Amanda let me know immediately. And then followed up post delivery to make sure everything arrived in good shape, and to make sure we were happy with the cabinet. And she’s the sweetest person you’d ever want to meet to boot! 😊 Folks, this is the kind of customer service you always hope for but rarely find in this day and age. I can’t say enough good things about Amanda and the icanhelpsew team. They really went above and beyond on a tough to find order, and all our future purchases will be going through them. I’ve seen some recent reviews with some negative comments and trust me - these are from people who cause their problems themselves, not icanhelpsew. “My order took forever to get here!” (vendors don’t control the manufacturing process ma’am), “The order didn’t have the additional add on I wanted!” (not icanhelpsew’s fault you didn’t read the product description ma’am), etc. The fact of the matter is this vendor found a way to overcome the difficulties of a tough situation on this order and exceeded expectations at every turn. Buy with confidence, and enjoy the process. Amanda and the icanhelpsew team will not let you down.

Love the table. The electric lift is exactly what I needed for my sewing/embroidery machine. It took 2 people about 7 hours to assemble. It sits on carpet and I found shimming the front wheels necessary to slide the joey in and out without rubbing the top. I got the white finish, and noticed mild chipping from metal sewing notions, so I've placed a mat on the top where I rest my tools to protect the finish. My big complaint is the drawers in the joey are not straight, and the locking system doesn't work. The company's assembly video runs so fast that we weren't able to figure out correct installation even with frequent stopping and rewinding. This is where slowing down and clearly explaining would be helpful.

This is a great sewing table. I have it set up in my bedroom after being a sewing nomad in my own house for some time as my sons moved back in and out. Anyway, told my husband the bedroom is my new sewing room. The table fits in perfect next to my desk, I can pull it out to get the extra space in the back. My cords are hidden in the back and I love the drawer space, I did not realize how much stuff I was carrying around. Now its all in one place. Its a well made table, fairly easy to put together. I ordered the insert and it will arrive soon. Its important to have a good workspace for sewing projects. This sewing table makes this possible. The order arrived quickly with no hassle.

Yes, there were two of us but it was surprisingly easy. The back panel was dropped and unuseable so I called the number on the box and another back was shipped out to me right away! Nice customer service there! The sections are not reversible which was OK but not exactly what I wanted. I do recommend you get the custom insert specific to your machine. The lift mechanism is a push type which was fine with me since my machine will always sit ready to sew. The storage drawer are spacious and hold lots of seam rippers! The two panels - one covers the top when the machine is down, and the cover over the drawers are both stored under the machine out of the way. A nice bonus! The one I received had a flip up extension on the right side for extra room. Another bonus!

This cabinet was packaged extremely well! I assembled this sewing cabinet for my wife last weekend. (8/1/20) It is very well made and the instruction videos are excellent, I highly recommend using them. I had about 11 hours into the assembly time because about every panel has small parts to install. It is time consuming to sort out, lay out the panels and install the hardware but well worth not rushing through. It is made of a hardboard material like masonite and I found it easier to drill a shallow pilot hole with a 1/16 bit about 1/8 inch deep into their pre-drilled holes to start the screws. (The screws are short so don't go too deep.) I used a drill driver with a clutch setting when possible (for hinges) but prefered to use a screwdriver for final tightening. I would highly recommend looking over the lift mechanism before installation because I had mine installed and it didn't work due to a spring being detached, possibly from shipment. The video on "alternative air lift attachment steps" for when the block was removed from the air shock was helpful but my cables were short and hard to reattach so I had to come up with an alternate plan. I would highly recommend this cabinet for quilters and others who sew.

Love the versatility. Attractive. Closed, it fits into a room without taking up much space. Opened, it provides a lots of table space for cutting fabric or doing crafts which require a large surface. Would like more space & better way in knee hole for storing cutting boards.

Absolutely love this table… Good quality… Lots of working space… Additional storage… Could not be happier with this purchase

I really love this sewing table. It did take several hours to construct but well worth the effort. The instructions were thorough and it had all the pieces.
