Built for the largest sewing and embroidery machines and serious quilting projects, the Kangaroo Sydney XL Sewing Cabinet turns your sewing room into a dedicated workstation. The Sydney XL combines an extra-large hydraulic lift, expansive multi-leaf workspace, purpose-built storage, and support for a second machine in one premium cabinet.
The A14 XL lift accommodates compatible sewing machines up to 65 lbs and provides a 30-1/2" W × 14-1/2" D opening. Three-position hydraulic operation lets you move between free-arm, flatbed, and storage positions, while the included sewing well cover panel restores usable work surface when the machine is stored.

Why Customers Love This Cabinet
The Sydney XL is designed for sewists who have outgrown a basic sewing table and need a true workstation for a large machine. Its XL hydraulic lift supports machines up to 65 lbs, while the three-position design gives you useful machine positioning for free-arm sewing, flatbed sewing, and storage.
For quilters, the real advantage is the amount of fabric support built into the cabinet. The rear quilt leaf and additional side extensions create a broad working area around the machine, helping large projects stay supported rather than pulling against the needle area.
The cabinet also makes a strong choice for embroidery sewists. The large lift accommodates compatible premium machines, while the dedicated cubby provides flexible storage for an embroidery arm. Two rear support arms can also create space for a second sewing machine, giving multi-machine users more flexibility without adding another full workstation.
When the machine is lowered into storage, the included sewing well cover panel helps reclaim the opening as usable work surface. The result is a cabinet that works as a sewing station when open and a more compact piece of furniture when the project is finished.
