It was used and I am very happy. If you notice it takes up most of my quilting room. LOL. I will get a lot of use.. I already have my first quilting job for my friend's Methodist group. That is the quilt on it. I practiced last night on one of mine and am one of those people who kind of jump in feet first. I am 3/4 done so far. It has been a long day quilting and I am going to stop now. LOL.
