Can't compare the 2 setups, but I have the 26" innova with lightning stitch and mach 3 computerized quilting too. I am totally happy with my setup. The customer service is 2 hours away, but it has been invaluable to me. I have also used the customer service techs from the home company in Houston and they were wonderful too. I had a tech from accomplished quilting where I bought mine, walk me through a problem on a weekend as he was working his garage sale from home. Just a totally happy customer.
