When the cabinet is open, is there anything blocking the seating space? Can you comfortably sit and sew unencumbered by a shelf or support?

Yes, you can center yourself over the needle without obstruction. I'm very happy with my purchase.

The table on the cabinet fits into the cabinet on metal sliders hinges in the middle as a drop down; and the entire front of the table then "drops" down to cover the inside front so the doors can be closed over it. I have used the "lift" part as a shorter table by pulling out the part underneath that has rollers on it to the extent that I need. I have two smaller (sewing & serger) machines that I can fit comfortably on either side of the drop down part now used as a shorter table. When I place my heavier full size embroidery machine on it, I extend it all the way out for safety and glance at the roller feet to make sure that machine vibration has not moved them out of position in any way.

Both doors open and top shelf pulls out(glides very smooth). We did fit our large printer inside. But we decided to keep it on top. We print quite often and unless we kept the doors left open, the paper would scrunch up when coming out of printer. We are very happy with the quality of the cabinet and it looks great in our office!

There are no knobs on the cabinet to open it. You have to pull the outside edge to open it. If you frame it, it may obstruct that outside edge. That would be my only hesitation.

Hi there - yes, a full - sized sewing machine will easily fit in the cabinet. Not sure what model my wife has but the cabinet is huge inside.

Yes! But it's kind of junky looking. We ended up not putting the drawer in because I wanted to use my crib skirt, which you can't really with the drawer. And if you choose the drawer, then the sides show which are unfinished wood. Loving our crib, but without the drawer.

There is a cabinet with one door (opens from front) on either side of the unit, with an open shelf in the middle. You have the ability to adjust the shelves to your liking to some degree within each cabinet during assembly.

No way to lock the cabinet, also be very careful when you move it the cabinet has only small staples that holds it together, my wife moved hers about10 feet and it feel apart in her hands.

I think the drawer will be fine. It fits loosely. Although, I would finish it appropriately.

None. Plenty of room on top and the drawer slides fine. Very nice looking too.

I have purchased this item through Amazon. It is attractive, well made, nice and heavy, and meets my needs for a deskside combination of one hanging-file drawer and one drawer for the usual miscellaneous small items that go with a workspace. The price was right. I'm glad I bought it. I should add, however, that for reasons completely unclear to me, the file drawer has the annoying habit of opening by itself about six inches. Our house is new and the floor are level. I've tried raising the front of the cabinet invisibly, but that has not solved the problem Hard to know whether it's something about the venue or something about the cabinet, but it remains a petty annoyance. Hope this helps.

There's not a solid back, but there is a stopper built up behind each drawer so that it won't push through. The drawers won't go past where they're flush with the back of the frame.

Only the top drawer has a lock which may not suit everyone. I rarely lock the filing cabinet so one is fine.

I also forgot to add if you use the cabinet for CDs, that's all I use it for, there is more than one inch of space between the bottom of a shelf and the top of the CDs on the shelf below. If they do bow a little over time there is extra room before the shelf would touch the CDs below it.

I read the other reply to the question and that appears to be correct. You should know that if you plan to use a chair with this cabinet, make sure you measure the height of the arms (if that is the style) so that the chair slides in beneath the monitor shelf. Mine does not and it is uncomfortable for me to type because I can't get close enough. i hope that helps you.

Yes. The top right drawer is also a file cabinet. For the little time I have had it. I would say it is worth it. Not having to assemble was huge. It is also pretty heavy duty.

I didn't have any problems putting it together. Followed the directions and had it done in about 2 hours. The cabinet looks very nice and am using it as a printer stand, would definetly buy more from this company in the future.
