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.

The drawers don’t work very well though. Otherwise I love it.

Arrow makes quality cabinets. I have put a lot of furniture together recently because I’m setting up a craft room. Arrow was by far THE BEST! They have some items where they have the cams already in them and the drawer tracks already in place. It takes away a lot of user error. I have had a couple of questions and they responded to my questions immediately. They also have videos that walk you through many items you may question. I ordered a flush insert and didn’t think it was right. I watched a video and found out exactly how to adjust it. I can’t say enough about Arrow. I’m a 64 year old woman with hip issues and I was able to assemble this all on my own.

I bought this several years ago. I love it because it has plenty of drawers to store all your threads, scissors, bobbins etc. You can set it up several ways different ways and always have all your needs within easy reach. You can configure to your needs but L shape is what I find most useful. I can easily change for more floor space if needed or close it all up and no one would know it is a sewing center.

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.
