I love my 24" Pro Nolting.
I did my homework and decided on this machine for many reasons.
It is made in the USA,,the cust service is the best, very easy machine to operate and very easy to maintain. Parts are easy to get if needed and not expensive. The needles and bobbins are not expensive.
I can use any brand of thread on my machine and never worry about tension.
I have a LA business and this machine is a workhorse.
I got all the bells and whistles,wheels in the frame,12 ft frame and the cost was what the other machine started at.
Do your homework and test drive as many machines as you can. It's just like buying a car..what I like you may not.
