I like my Millenium and APQS service is great. DH and I took their classes and plan on taking their maintenance class this year. I think the advice on checking out the frame is a good idea. I had room enough for 14' and have been glad because I can work on any size. I also enjoy using the Intelliquilter computerized system. I do not find it boring because if I am doing an E2E while keeping an eye on it I can work on my own piecing etc. I find it very artistic, just in a different way. Like the difference between painting with watercolors vs painting with oils, both can produce beautiful results.
