Moxie Long Arm by HandiQuilter
Has anyone purchased/used the new Moxie by HandiQuilter? It is in a price range that I am considering. My daughter tried it at her Quilting shop and my local Quilt Store has them. I have not seen one yet in person.

I have used one, and it's surprisingly very smooth. It's stripped down to make it more affordable. So it can't be set up to use with the Pro-stitcher (computerized robotics). The bars on the frame are thinner, so it can't get any longer than 10 feet. The carriage rides on 4 wheels instead of 8 wheels. The machine has a 15" throat, but you can put a 16" machine on the frame. It doesn't come with a table surface to put pantos on, but can be added. It doesn't come with the rear handle bars for pantos, either; but it can be added. The screen isn't a touch-screen, so the navigation is kind of awkward. We've sold 3 since they came out, in December, but I haven't heard any feed-back from the customers, yet.
Because "Moxi" means "confidence," it also comes with extra support. You get emails with tips and tricks. And so many hours (I think 10) of one-on-one question and answer time with a HandiQuilter specialist.
I think it's going to be a great addition to the Handi Quilter family!

That alone might be worth it. I bought the Amara with Pro Stitcher. While i already love it i have received very little support.
