Then you will know better if you can proceed. It's what we did. If you don't have large pieces of cardboard (remember you can't bend the cardboard at all during the exercise) you can get them from somewhere that sells large appliances like refrigerators, etc. And then ducttape the pieces to make your cardboard "frame". Good luck to you! Hope you can get it!
My apologies--I said my "frame" doesn't break down, and what I meant to say is the
table doesn't break down. The legs all come off and apart, etc. but the table along the back of the machine is one huge piece, and what you have to worry about having room for and being able to get into the house and into the space you have chosen for it. It is usually 12-14 ft. long and about 4 ft. wide, several inches thick where the braces are underneath, and doesn't go around corners. At all.
