I know, you meant darling, right?!

I've been doing a lot of research also on this. Everyone says most important is to "test drive" machines, as many as you can. Next, great service by dealer.
I'm in a remote area, only HQ 16-18 between Baby Lock & Bernina dealer, not the heavy duty long arms. I tested & have heard a lot of people like Gammill, it's like a catalac of cars. But I had also tested one seldom heard of Prodegy, and I was very impressed with this. I've also heard back from nearly every brand owner, that they love their machines, and seldom complaints. Sort of like sewing machines, you have Pfaff, Bernina, Janome, Baby Lock and then down to under $100 sold at chain stores.
Get what you can afford, but also what your purpose is.
Do you want to be able to add a computer system to it?
Pricy also, but you have Inteliquilter, Statler, down to Qbot. Do you want to do free style quilting more? Prodegy has great visibility, all from sitting down. Research, test drive, check service, and good luck.

I'm sure that you are talking about the Prodigy. There isn't a lot of advertising about this machine - the main advertising for this machine are the owners themselves. Very competitive priced and check out the longarm machines for sale - you never see one listed - that should tell you what the owners think of this machine. I've had mine for five years and wouldn't trade it for any of the other brands!
