I can attest that don't worry about leaving it on the frame - The quilting group I quilt w/ during the summer often has a quilt on the frame for over a year. My last quilt took 18 months to finish (king size quilt)
I have a floor frame one that is 24x36 which gives me more space to quilt. It is very similar to the PVC one that can be found at JoAnn's, but mine is wooden. I quilt in my office and sit in my office chair. I also have a hoop that I travel w/. I don't mind using the hoop to travel, but not sure i'd like to use that all the time. Moving the quilt around when i've finished an area is a bit cumbersome.
