    Nolting quilting frame and machine

    Can .anyone tell me if a Nolting machine and frame measuring 14.9 ft by 2 ft wide and over 2 ft high is worth buying. Bearing in mind I have never used a long arm. Is this easy to learn to work. It is advertised at £700 but seller cannot tell me age or much about it.
    Thank you for any info.

    I would advise you not to purchase any long arm you have not tried out. Free motion on a track system is a different feel and not for everyone. If they will give you a serial number, you can at least do some research. With out a model number or any serial number you have no idea what you are purchasing. Just my humble opinion.

    I would be wary. That seems very cheap it must be very old and basic. We don't get many used long arm quilting machines over here expecially that cheap so i would go and see it up and running find out what the model is and Google it to see if you can get spares easily and if there is somewhere that u can get to to that will have the knowledge to device it and repair if needed. Best of luck and I hope it turns out to be a brilliant bargain.x

    Thank you all for replies. Think I'll pass on this as I have no experience of long arm so probably end up buying trouble.
