I needed a sewing table that would fit in the small space that I have, and this one is perfect.  I misread the dimensions though, I thought the overall height was 25 inches, but in reality it is 29,5 inches.  As I already have a drawing chair (higher than normal) I can use it and I put the pedal on the  shelve under the table.  Very sturdy and comfortable.  I just love how much space is available once the side shelve is up,
