I got my Alto's QuiltCut 2 many years ago. I think it was even before my first hand surgery. I am soooo thankful I did as the arthritis has taken a toll on my abilities to cut comfortably. I store it under my TV cabinet in the living room. Even though I have the carrying case I made a rip stop nylon cover so I could keep it cleaner.
