They are easy to use. If at all possible I would suggest trying out one before you invest. If you have one in mind call the manufacturer and see if someone in your area has one and if that person would be willing to show you how it works and let you try it out.
I do that with the Notling I have.
Also if you can make it to any show. Not knowing where you are in Georgia, but we are having a small quilt show and the Nolting rep will be there for people to test drive the machine and talk with folks. It will be in Gray, TN at the end of April.

Thanks for the info and input Quiltingrannie. I live in southwest GA so TN is not an option right now. I do visit Tallahassee and also near Jacksonville. Probably can find a dealer there next time I travel that way. I definitely will try one out. I really appreciate everyone's opinions and advice. I think if someone has one and uses it they are well qualified to offer me advice and I will listen!! thanks to all
