I would call Carrie and talk to her. They were at the show last year in the Innova booth with I think someone else was minding the store. Carrie is very good. When I bought my machine from her 2 years ago she tried to get me to take the class and I declined as I have several friends who have machines. Well, after a year she still honored my class and I met a girl (who became a friend) from Pennsylvania who was down here to buy from Carrie and Tom! Her 2 day class includes onsite accomodations! Can't say enough about them! Back to the original question, you should have plenty of hands on time to try out. If you don't, just kindly tell them you are serious not just playing with the machines as there are lots of those at the show too, drooling and wishing. I was one for years!
