HI - I have this machine. It is wonderful for FMQ. Its also great for piecing, as it has a perfect, straight stitch. I used this machine first on a table, then put it on a frame for quilting. I loved the machine but wanted more throat space so I got a Nolting Funquilter but kept the Juki 2010Q as a back up and to use for piecing. This machine is a real workhouse, no bells and whistles, but is a good, solid machine that will last years and years. Just my opinion...
