I have one of these too, bought used and I love it. I like that the throat area is tall vs. wide. Probably same amount of square inches compared to a machine that is longer and flatter, but, I like the space arrangement better. I can get a pretty big quilt done under it. Working from the center out makes it easier with a big quilt.
