The following machines have known problems:
BabyLock
• Destiny
Brother
• Dream VX8500D
Janome
• Horizon Memory Craft 15,000
The machine fits the platform of the cabinet in flatbed position (a custom insert is available) but you will have to move the sewing machine from right to left to lower into the storage position because of the extension of the front support leg of the machine. Also, the knee lifter lever cannot be used with a sewing cabinet due to the length of the lever and how machine sits on the platform in flatbed position.
