I have a Nolting and I love it. When buying a long arm be sure to fine out about who will service and cost. I know some girls with other machines and the service is high priced and some even have to take their machines (big and cumbersome) in to get them serviced. Most important thing about buying a machine is who will help you with it. My Nolting dealer is a peach. Training was great and they are helpful with any questions.
Enjoy whatever you get.
