It intrigued me, but they don't (yet) have any Canadian dealers and I wanted local support - does look like a sweet machine though. Enjoy!

My husband told me last night to order one for my birthday but I didn't have time to do it today--I'll try tomorrow! I tried it at Paducah and really liked it. I just wondering if I want to keep my Little Gracie II frame or go for one of the new frames. Lynn told me that the Qbot people had been over checking it out so I'm hoping they will come up with a way to use it on the BlockRockIt--and Qbot won't work with the SR2 but will with my current frame. I'm hoping he'll be able to steer me in the right direction when I call him.

Congratulations on ordering yours!

Well...I know a way around that problem - become a dealer yourself
Many moons ago my mother in law found herself living in remote parts of British Columbia with no sewing machine repairmen for miles, so, she became one and the business bloomed. It took off like the wild fire.

How does the pricing compare to other mid-arm machines?

Please, please please post after you've gotten your new 'treasure' home and used her!!! I, too, have been following the BlockRockiT for a few months and have decided this machine is "The One" for me when I get my Mom-Cave this fall. I'm very eager to hear your comments .... Enjoy!!!

Looks like a great machine for the price! I went on their web site, and they showed "multiple ports for accessories"...but I can't find what accessories would plug into it? Anyone know? It's the little white box that sits on top of the machine, it has 4 plug type things?

I have not heard of the BlockRockIT, however, congratulations on your new acquisition, I'm sure you will have many long and happy hours together.

I've have had the BlockRockiT for a couple of months now. It's a great quilting machine and easy to use. It is quieter than my Janome 1600db was and stitches beautifully
. I like the 8.5 in height which means the machine isn't long and is easier to reach the back of the machine. I have ordered rear handles but others on the BlockRockiT yahoo group have ordered laser light and ruler table for ruler work.
