I thought I wanted one until I helped a long armer do several quilts at her home. The quilting was fun but the loading and unloading wasn't for me. She has the top of the line Gammil with everything on it. I can send my quilts to the best award winning LA to do for me for years and still save money. If your passion is machine quilting then it's worth the cost but having to machine quilt for others to justify the cost would not be fun at all to me. I do decent all over quilting with a John Flynn Frame and it cost under $150.
