I have that setup and I love it ,I do have the stitch regulator and would not do a quilt without it . The only thing I would want is a bigger throat area. I guess that is the way it always is though , you always want more . lol . Hope this helps you out

i have a grace pinnacle and i'm very happy with it.
the only advice i have for you is thinking about what you will need in the future because many of the grace frames are small and you won't be able to do a king size quilt and some can't even do a queen size.
also think about the throat space, you might want to start with a 9 inch throat, but as someone said, this is limited, the small grace frames will not allow a large throat machine.
if you buy the large grace frames they have the ability to grow with you is size and throat space.
so while a $400 frame might look nice on the surface its only good for small sized quilts and machines.

My husband got me the Pinnacle\JukiTL2000Qi think I will really enjoy using it after the learning curve. Be sure you have warranty and support. They sent wrong screws and one of the legs was bad they replaced them again with wrong screws. We went to Lowes and got the right ones. Now the Speed Control is stuck in high. This happened the first time I turned the control. Little frustrated with that.
