I adore my Innova and would recommend you check it out. They are made to commercial standards and have very few problems. They also have 24/7/365 tech service because they also make commercial machines that they sell world wide that when they go down, they need help immediately. I know that www.QuiltFrog.com has one that was traded in for a larger one on sale and ABM International (makes the Innova in Texas) is selling the machines they have used as demos at shows for $1,200 off the price. It's really nice dealing with a family owned and run business - they really listen to their Innova owners and make changes that we ask for!
