Default Questions for Sweet Sixteen w/ InSight Table Owners

My husband is urging me to buy this machine and I just might take him up on it.

What's your experience with it?

Do you miss having a knee lift for the presser foot?

What are your favorite rulers to use with this machine?

I think my decision rests on how good the stitch regulator is with the InSight Table. Does it do a good job of giving you nice, even stitches?

This is my hardest challenge in FMQ, especially after having had MSQC quilt a couple of my quilts for me - the stitching is so perfect and beautiful, it makes me want to cry.

The idea of spending $7,000 on something I might only get to use for a few years is daunting, especially if it doesn't improve the quality of my quilting very much. And I still have to baste the quilt sandwich, my second hardest challenge. I wonder if I'd be better off just having a local quilter baste my quilts on their longarm machines and continue to quilt on my industrial Juki.

Pros/cons/input welcome. Thanks in advance!
