Just by chance I have been storing mine flat and will continue to do so. Lessons learned at someone else's expense tho - hate that. Too bad - hope you can get the bow out of yours!!!

Thank you for the heads up. I own two and one is stored side ways. I will need to change that. Sorry to hear yours is broke. They are not cheap!

I just checked mine. It has been stored for months on it's side and it still works like a charm.

Another way to store them is to hang them on the wall on peg board if you have space for the peg board. I have peg board on parts of 2 walls in my sewing room & hang all kinds of sewing/quilting equipment on hooks there. I love the convenience of the peg board. Wouldn't be without it!
