No what kind of frame are you looking at? I have a Hintenberg frame that I paid $190 for & it is a great, sturdy frame, still in the box. I'd like to sell it because I have 3 other frames & I don't hand quilt that much. I was just going to put it in the corner with a quilt on display but all my corners are filled up. The name brand frames seem the best to me. Sturdiest & better built. This one goes forward, backward, left & right. It just depends on how much mobility you like in your frame. Good luck
