We all have our own experiences for sure, I gave mine away after a couple quilts. I did not have the tilt package and ended up stacking big telephone books under the one side so the frame tilted towards me. I am tall and have long arms, but I still found it very tiring reaching into the middle of the frame, so found I had to readjust the quilt quite often. My back ached from reaching and leaning, I still use qsnap, but the lap ones.
