Mine is a a Gammill Classic on a 14 foot table--and just pride of possession is enough for me. I got just the machine I wanted when I wanted it. My son does most of my "Paid" quilting--and the aggravation IS THERE, believe me. It just goes over his head, and drives ME crazy. Needless to say, I won't be doing commercial quilting; but my friends and sisters use my machine whenever they want, and they love it. I am thoroughly intimidated by that big boy...we have had tension problems from the get-go with it, but we have learned how to get around it by using the same thread in the bobbin as on top--does that make sense? Works for us.
