    Omak posted recently about a Grace Pinnacle, perhaps she may know about the one you're interested in too.

    I don't have this frame, but I recently purchased a used Pfaff Grand Quilter with the Inspira 10' frame. It's wonderful to roll it up on rollers instead of getting down on the floor and pinning. The only downfall is the small quilting area when you use a machine with a 9" throat. With some of the quilt frames you CANNOT upgrade to a larger machine. The distance between the poles and the size of the carriage platform limits the size of the machine you can use. If you are looking to someday upgrade your machine to a larger throat, make sure you find out if that's possible before you buy.
