Thank you ladies for all the valuable advice
I have been going to Quilt fest for over 25 years and though I was not in the market for one, have tested and kept notes I took of the displayed sit down long arms for at least 5 years
I like several of them but the Gammil always stood out; expensive but that's not what I go by
It was quieter, and the stitching beautiful
It does not have a stitch regulator per say but does have a variable speed stitch, constant speed stitch, basting stitch, adjustable stitch speed for all modes
It has a mega sturdy table w ample space to work
I'm claustrophobic so this is important
It's been my dream to own one
Learned about the Bernina Q20 from online searches and tested one in Humble, TX Monday this week
Impressive!! Beautiful too
BabyLoch Jewel another contender, sat down and played w one yesterday AM
Tested the HViking and the Pffaf last Sunday and those include a stitch regulator that u drag around w the quilt -those do not work for me
I did like that their tables are adjustable, sit or stand up
Purchase has not been made as I am still researching and evaluating user reviews but I do want to own one soon. Love to FMQ ❤️👍
Thank you
