    I highly recommend Innova machines but my machine is loaded on a frame. I was never any good at FMQ on my domestic and I hated the basting process with a white hot passion. Both of these are eliminated with frame quilting. The machine head that is in the sitdown table is the same machine head that is loaded on the frame and it is a fantastic machine.

    You really have to go test drive the machine first to see if it suits your quilting requirements.

    I agree you have to try it. That said, a sitdown machine is like a large domestic machine in the way it works. You are actually moving the quilt under the needle vs. a regular LA, where you are moving the machine over the quilt.

    I have an innova long arm but might prefer the Handi quilter sweet 16 sit down over the Innova sit down.
