When you go hunting for a longarm, check out Renae Haddadin's article on Shopping for a Longarm at http://www.quiltsonthecorner.com/inc/sdetail/1349

You "buy" it (it is free) and it will give you answers to questions you never knew to ask - at least I didn't! It is not slanted to any particular brand name, but gives you things to ask about every machine out there.

I love my Innova and wouldn't switch brands for anything, but that doesn't mean it would be just as perfect for you. Drive every longarm you can get your hands on...and drive it for a while, not just a couple of minutes. I have found many other longarm machines really stress my shoulders or drive like a truck, but others have no problem with them. Find what is right for you and make sure you have 24/7/365 tech service - nice to be able to call at 3 am when you are having a problem!
