Create a dedicated, organized sewing workstation with the Kangaroo Wallaby Sewing Cabinet with Hydraulic Lift. Designed for quilters and sewists who want a full-featured cabinet without permanently sacrificing floor space, the Wallaby combines a three-position hydraulic sewing lift, expandable quilt workspace, serger storage, thread organization, and mobile locking casters.
The hydraulic lift accommodates compatible sewing machines up to 55 lbs and moves between free-arm, flatbed, and storage positions. Pair it with a custom acrylic insert for a flush sewing surface and a more ergonomic transition between your machine and cabinet.

Why Customers Love This Cabinet
The Wallaby is a strong choice for sewists who want their sewing machine, thread, notions, and larger projects organized around one dedicated workstation. The hydraulic lift lets you change machine position as your sewing technique changes, while the rear quilt leaf adds valuable support for larger projects.
Its compact closed footprint also makes it practical for sewing rooms where floor space matters. When the machine is lowered into storage, the included wood panel can cover the sewing well and create additional workspace. For the most seamless setup, a custom acrylic insert can create a flush transition around a compatible machine.
