I have a TL2010Q. It is 18 inches on the outside length without the table (that includes the handwheel which sticks out a little more than the base). I have the table on mine which you cannot use on 24 inches of depth the way you are orienting your machine. I absolutely love my Juki. I bought a clear open toe quilting foot on Ebay that I like better than the two heavy metal closed-toe feet that come with it for quilting. I also bought 100 bobbins for about $20.00 including shipping. I am really happy with this machine and wish the same for you.
