Oh so true ...... as soon as I hear they do not stock a machine, then red flags go up and bells go off!!
Especially a machine that is "different" than most others.
I had a dealer recently tell me how much she knew about the S16, despite not having one in the store.
She was sure to let me know how had been to the company twice for training twice
and was quite familiar and competent.
Competent? and yet no machine to continue growing her skills?
When I was buying my machine, I called HQ a couple of times and their people were amazing at answering my questions. So don't hesitate to pick up the phone if you want/answers.
