Got one through IKEA. Paid a little bit more for it but it was well worth it. It's adjustabl. Being tall I need one that adjusted. I'd check this one out and it didn't meet my requirement.

aquiltingbratI have almost the same table, for the same reason! I love that I can raise it high enough to cut comfortably, then lower it down and have my machine bed low enough that I can sew without my shoulders up around my ears. The fact that it takes up more room because it doesn't fold is more than balanced out by the fact that I only need the one table for everything.

Maureen548I got the Bekant. It comes with either manual or power height adjustment; mine is the power version, but the hand-crank is less expensive. I have found that if I leave my 40-lb sewing machine sitting off-centre on the desk, the power adjustment doesn't always work. If I take the mackine off, or have it sitting so that the weight is evenly distributed over both legs, it works fine.
There is also the Skarsta, which I think is manual-only (hand crank). It has a slightly different look, but otherwise is quite similar.
