I too had one and used it for 3 quilts that were for charity. It is time consuming sewing the top to one end and then the backing to the other end and then once all put together move furniture in my sewing room so that it would be enough room for the PVC pipes to stretch out and roll freely. Ok finally after all that I started and the beginning of the quilt worked great BUT once a portion is quilted and rolled up there is no room in the throat area to continue to quilt. There I was quilting 1" length at a time and rolling it up. It was awful so sold it on Craig's list. My opinion --save your money. Sue
