Sauder Craft Cart Storage Cabinet, Rolling Sewing Table with Expandable Top, Mystic Oak

I bought this to replace another inexpensive sewing table i had that did not withstand my move. I really wanted white but could not justify an extra $50 for white. The cinnamon cherry is beautiful and likely will be more forgiving overtime to use. It took me only 45 min to assemble. The directions were pictorial and instructional making it very clear and easy to follow. I strongly recommend taking time to lay each piece out with its assigned lettering to stream line assembly. I also use on large styrofoam piece that was inside the packaging and stuck all the hardware in it. The hardware arrived loose in one big bag and this made it very easy to inventory and select as each piece was needed. As a 40-somehting female, I did need assistance to bring the entire box upstairs but one could easily have taken out the pieces and carried them upstairs over several trips. The doors were a bit challenging to screw on without a second set of hands, but i used my shoe and knee to leverage and was able to do so alone. I absolutely needed help pushing in the castors. I was only able to insert 2 out of 5 by myself- they are a snug fit and the angle (if following instructions) was not ideal. This table is cute, structurally sturdy and will be a great addition to my craft room. For roughly $100 you cannot beat the quality. the only CON i could identify is the cheap horizontal plastic beige bins that run on the inside of the door that swings open to support the extended table top. I was not going to mount them but they are really functional and have nice dividers. I store the table closed unless working at it- so all in all, its just fine. (note: different finishes have different prices)

I needed a table for sewing, did a search and found this cart. I haven't actually used it for sewing yet. It was easy to assemble, I called upon my husband for assistance, it took a couple hours. Maybe around three I would say to include unpacking and final assembly. It is on wheels which is really great because I like to maneuver it around my space a bit.It doesn't take up much space which is great, and it looks very nice too. The storage is great, and much needed. I stored most of my sewing needles, baskets and whatnots on the shelves, and my sewing machine underneath. Very tidy! It seems fairly sturdy, but probably needs to be handled with care for longevity, especially in my case because I may move it around a bit more then other users will, across carpeted floors where there is more traction. That is why I am giving it just a four star rather then a five star rating. I am sort of torn on this because the price is very good. I shouldn't expect a hardwood piece of furniture for this price and its better then many other furniture products I have seen. So, after having said all this, I am glad I purchased it, it looks great, and it satisfied my need for a sewing space!

From my wife: This review is late in coming. I got this as a Christmas gift from my husband. And when I say -a gift- what I mean is, I helped him assemble it, wrap it and place it next to the tree in 2020. Assembly was easy. All our pieces and hardware were there and easy to assemble. We did so quietly enough after the kids had gone to bed. After Christmas, it went downstairs into what was going to be a crafting area, then quickly came back up to our dining room where I could multitask while crafting. A note- it doesn’t work well on carpet. In the dining area, we have a hardwood floor. This is exceptional because when I have larger projects, I can immediately pull the craft table toward me and keep working as I sew, then tuck the table back when those larger portions are complete.I initially kept the cart closed between projects, lowering the side table. But I have long since given up on that. Using the expanded table and trays for a ton of storage and active work area. (More on this relevance later). The hardware is quality. No grinding, skidding, slipping, shifting or breaking in 2 years. The magnetic doors work exactly as they should. The cabinet side houses thread and some fabric, though this will likely change soon.What adds to my love of this cart is that, in 2021, I also got a serger! So this little cart now houses my sewing machine on top and my serger on the bottom together with a thread caddy. To swap between projects is a breeze. The leg room is a bit shallow. So I usually sit back a little bit. However, it makes it easy for my 10 year old and 7 year old to work at my sewing machines too. They have been working with me for the 2 years I have had the table.I return to the storage area topic. This has excellent storage and it has served quite well for these 2 years. It’s in like new condition. It’s staying! However, I got a cricut! So now I need more storage and surface work area. This led to more searching for a second craft table. Which brings me to Sauder. Two years with this product and hands down- I recommend it. As I expand my crafting, I am looking at a second Sauder product to meet my cricut needs.
