Well, too late now. I didn't see a better price on ebay and I did like the way there is more space to the left on the Janome table, and maybe I was influenced by the fact that the dealer only had one left (so they said) and it was on sale, so I went ahead & got the Janome table. How's that for a run-on sentence?! Plus my hubby influenced me toward the Janome. I'm gonna go pick it up today and hope to have the machine set up & ready to go this weekend. Thanks for all the advice. This is a wonderful board!
