    I am hoping to attend a sewing event in Denver in September. I am not able to bring my machine on the plane...way too heavy for me to manage as a carry-on, so I am hoping to rent a machine in Denver.

    I've called a dealer and the answer was NO. Do any of you know of a dealer that might be willing to help me? Thanks!

    I don't think that any dealers rent a machine.

    I have a call into the event host to see if they ever bring any machines with them.

    If it was being held at a sewing dealer's store...I think they would be willing to help me, but this event will be at a hotel so I would be removing a machine from their premises. I'm still hoping....

    In this area, I can rent a machine from our local renter centers... the ones that rent tools, carpet cleaners, etc... I can rent them by the day, week or month :D:D:D

    Another thought is to check out the renter centers that rent furniture, appliances, laptops... they rent by the week too. They may possibly have sewing machines too :D:D:D

    I live in the area and I have no idea who might do that. I don't believe the rental centers do that.

    What hotel will you be at?

    I would be staying at the Hilton Garden Inn in Highlands Ranch. It is just off the 470 on Plaza Drive.
