I would like to know if anyone has a Titan21(largest of Block Rocket machine)and do you like it? Also what other machines you might have and like. I'm looking for a machine 17" to 22" long arm. Thanks.

What's your price range? My dream machine would be an Innova with lightning stitch, but a Voyager 17 is more practical for my limited needs.

I have the Innova long arm and love it

I have a Handiquilter Avante and love it. It was an upgrade from my HQ sweet sixteen which I used for 10 years before upgrading. Great company to work with.

I second the HandiQuilter Avante. There's nothing about it that I don't love.

The Titan 21 won't start shipping until January if they are on schedule. I have one of the first Block Rockit's sold and I absolutely love it. If the Titan 21 is anything like the Block Rockit (I assure it will be) then it's going to be one great machine. Wish I could upgrade.

Same here. Check Longarm University and do a search online for used longarms.

However, I would recommend trying the different machines out in order to see which one works for you.

I second the recommendation to try before you buy.

My machine is a Viking MegaQuilter 18x8 (rebranded Tin Lizzie) and I love her. I've had her for quite a few years now. however, before I bought her, I attended every show I could that had some LA's so I could "test drive" them. I was at one of the larger AQS shows, and tried 13 different brands (this was 2004, I think - many of them have gone under since then), and decided on the Tin Lizzie.

Remember, just because it's a more expensive brand, that doesn't necessarily mean that it "feels right" to you. This is a major investment, so, just like with buying a new car, test drive as many as possible!!
