Full details
The Harriet Fold-Away Sewing Cabinet is designed for home sewists and quilters who need a comprehensive storage and workspace solution.

Troubleshooting
Cabinet drawers are stiff or sticky
Ensure the cabinet is on a level surface. Check for any obstructions in the drawer slides. Lubricate the slides with a silicone-based spray if necessary.
Hydraulic lift is slow or won't stay up
Check that the machine weight is within the 55lb limit. Ensure the lift mechanism is clear of any obstructions. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Casters are difficult to lock or unlock
Clean any debris from the caster wheels and locking mechanisms. Ensure the cabinet is not overloaded when attempting to lock the casters.
Side leaves do not sit flush when open
