If I didn't already have the HQ 16 and had a place with less room, then the Sweet 16 would be the way to go. Though I would have a suspension frame with it to hold up the weight of the quilt. I saw one, it sat on the edge of the Sweet 16 table and went up for quite a bit and had spring or bungee type cords that had clamps on the end to hold up the quilt. Unfortunately I can't find a picture and I think it was home made. Will PM if I find out more.
