I removed the shelves and put my embroidery unit inside instead. I also purchased 2 elements drawer units and am putting wooden bases in the drawers with dowels for my thread. Then I can chop and change in the future. I My Stabiliser rolls and other notions will fit too. The only downside was the 3mm difference in height, but that has been overcome by putting a piece of old shelving under the base of both drawer units making them all match beautifully. I even have 2 cutting mats which fit on top perfectly, so I am a very happy bunny.

Brilliant news… chuffed that your ‘mix and match’ worked so well! Thanks for leaving this lovely review.
The Super Q is a lovely sewing table. It’s very well made and spacious I bought mine in white. Love the riser for the machine it’s very easy to use and one of my two Perspex covers fitted well. Opening up the back part of the table is very stable and gives me more fabric space. Unfortunately as with another of my reviews for the five draw storage unit I found they are not compatible which, has disappointed me immensely. There is a difference in height which cannot be altered.
I ordered the above table direct from Horn. I received it within 2 weeks of ordering. Communication between me and the company was excellent as was Jeff who delivered to me. He took his time to make sure everything was perfect for my own sewing machine before he left.
I’ve now had a chance to use it and I’m so happy. With the machine at the lower level with the made to measure infil i find my shoulders are relaxed and not up round my ears and I’m looking down onto my stitching rather than looking up which is tricky with variofocal glasses. Also I can move it myself on my carpet even though I’m not too young!
Thank you to all for your brilliant product and service. X
I absolutely love my cabinet. Everything is close to hand and so easy to open out and then put away. Jeff delivered it for me and took it upstairs. He unpacked it and put the casters on etc. He was great. He rang me to let me know he was on his way and showed me what to do and put my machine in place for me. Fantastic company. Fantastic product. Thank you
love the look of this cabinet, have a large room but not ending space

Hi Susan,
Thanks for your email. Unfortunately the Brother Luminaire XP3 is a huge sewing machine and too big for Super Q MK2. Due to the size and weight of this kind of sewing machine we’ve now created a new size of opening called our Super Maxi size which measures a whopping 78cm by 37cm. This new size of opening is accompanied with our new super maxi size electric lifter designed to cope with these larger, heavier sewing machines. If you take a look at our website you’ll be able to see the new 860 Modular cabinet which is the first cabinet that we’ve introduced with this new size opening and lifter with this cabinet we’ve still managed to make it in a relatively compact size so effectively getting the very largest sewing machines into the smaller space possible. Should you have any space left after fitting in the 860 then there are 2 other new pieces that are designed to accompany and match in with the 860 called the Overlocker caddy and a 5 drawer unit. These offer the ability to add more surface area or storage, depending on your needs, to your enhance your sewing area further.
My previous Eclipse was purchased in 2009 but my sewing NEW machine needed a NEW cabinet (ha,ha). Gate leg table a bit shorter than my other one but not a problem . I love the inner shelves for your bits and bobs, much more compact than my other one and I so much prefer the drawers ,two actual drawers instead of one deep heavy one. Jeff the delivery guy arrived ,assembled ,gave me a run through, cleaned up and was off. Great person,professional and polite.. The cabinet is very ,very well made and worth the money .Thank you so much Horn.

Hi Maria,
Thanks so much for this great in depth review. Your compliments will be passed onto the people concerned.

Jeff delivered this Gemini xl yesterday and I am still getting to know it.. Jeff was brilliant , after assembling he spent time explaining the air lift mechanism and then got me to try it. He gave me some very helpful tips which made using the cabinet so easy. It really is a classy piece of furniture as well as having a practical purpose.
Horn were brilliant, cabinet is very well designed and made. A good delivery time and an excellent price.
I have also ordered a hobby chair to complete my sewing room and looking forward to it’s delivery.

Hi Ann, thank you so much for this lovely review, and we’ll be sure to pass on all compliments to Jeff! We’re really happy that you’re happy with your experience and hope you enjoy your new Gemini XL and Hobby Chair for a long time to come.
I am now the proud owner of the Nova XL in weathered oak. The quality and workmanship of the cabinet is superb! I would highly recommend it, especially if you are an owner of one of the larger machines, as it provides a perfect sewing, seating position. From my initial enquiry through to delivery, Angela was an absolute star. She kept me fully updated at all times and even arranged a quick exchange when the incorrect table was accidentally ordered. Jeff who delivered and installed both tables, to the first floor room, was so polite and respectful of my property. He fully explained how to use the table correctly to avoid damage. Both are a credit to the Horn Furniture company. I also purchased one of the Horn chairs which is excellent. Fully adjustable so supports my back brilliantly. Would also highly recommend them. I love my new table and wish I had bought one before. Five stars isn’t enough. Can’t stop sewing now!

Great communication re delivery.
Delivered within arranged time frame by an absolute gent, Jeff was so polite, explained everything after he had expertly installed my beautiful new quilting workstation.
An excellent service and product that I can’t wait to use, many thanks again.
Would highly recommend this product and the company’s employees who I dealt with

Thank you very much for this wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear this, and all compliments will be passed on. Kind regards, the Horn Team!
From start to finish my experience with Horn has been brilliant. Angela dealt with my accidentally ordering the wrong cabinet, and realising once it was already in the van for delivery, smoothly & efficiently. Jeff & Tom set my new Quilter’s Delight MK2 up professionally & I absolutely love it. It’s made my sewing experience so much easier in the short time I’ve had it and when everything is put away it’s a smart, discreet, piece of furniture. Highly recommended 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
