I purchased a Tin Lizzie 18 at the Road to California Quilt Show in January. I'm still getting the bugs worked out. I had a little problem with the bobbin when it first arrived, it may have jiggled loose when it was shipped. But I called the man that actually makes them and he was able to tell my husband how to fix the problem. So far, I've quilted two small quilts on it and they both look nice for not knowing what I'm doing. Actually, my 7 year old grand-daughter quilted most of the second quilt yesterday and she loved doing it. I quilted free motion on the first one and on my grand-daughter's we pounced on a daisy pattern. I haven't been able to use the laser since the machine has no handles on the back to where a person could stand back there to follow the pantograph. I didn't get the wooden frame that is shown in the advertisement, mine came with the metal frame. Hope this helps!
