Bailey's Home Quilter
I came across this machine and the shop's packages via Pinterest -- and they look pretty darn good to me. Just wondering if anyone has experience with the brand and what you think? Here's the link - http://www.baileyssewingcenter.com/homequilter.html

I have 2 friends that have a Bailey, they're very happy with them. The Bailey's have a pretty good reputation and customer service is good also. When I get the room and the money, I'll be getting a Bailey for sure. If you would like to contact my friends, PM me and I'll send you a contact address.

I bought a Bailey about a year ago. It didn't come with a stitch regulator so it takes a while to get use to keeping your stitches about the same length. I find if I just go slow it works great. For me, it works great I just wish I had the money to get a bigger Bailey. I only got the 13" model, but other than that, it's great.

My only issue looking at the Bailey is they don't have as much height as some of the other longarms, which might not make it as good for sit-down quilting (because less space for the quilt). But I do think these machines probably give you a whole lot more bang for the buck than other quilters (which are greatly the same machine with better "packaging"). But my first instinct with the Bailey is that it almost looks like a sail making machine.

I think the biggest drawback to the height in the sit down is lack of visibility.
