I bought one about 10 months ago with a 10 foot frame and stitch regulator. I did not want the computer. Have learned alot in that 10 months and can now do pretty good free motion as well as pantographs. I've done 16 quilts and saved about $1500 by not sending to someone else to do. (Some were small that I could have done on my Bernina.) I figure that it will pay itself off in about 4to5 years time.
But I was lucky that I had plenty of room for it in our bonus room.
It is sooo much fun!
