It has totally changed the options I have for FMQing however. The quilt is moved like a regular DSM, and it is built into a table that doesn't take up the entire room. I did buy the extension tables but it is situated with needle in the front and motor in the back like a long arm machine.
I too love my Tiara but it is a sizeable investment. It does make it possible for me to quilt quilts that I wouldn't do on a DSM - even though mine has a large harp. Try several machines out and decide which one fits your needs and budget.
