I have pre-ordered this machine, which will come out late January 2014) because of the support he gives the group with quilting problems regardless where you bought your machine. His wife quilts professionally and they both have a desire to help quilters succeed. The price even without the rear handle (which will sell for $95), is better than any machine I have researched over the last several years. I have outgrown the throat space on my Janome 1600. This machine will allow me to keep my frame and increase my quilting space. I am a member of his Yahoo group and am anxiously awaiting this machine. No, I did not get paid to say all of this.
