I bought my Voyager and Hinterberg Stretch frame five or 6 years ago and have really enjoyed using it. There should be a lot of them on the market since Nolting isn't going to make any more of them, but it would be a great starter machine. It is heavy...about 70 lbs...but it is easy to use. I bought mine with a stitch regulator, but it's not a necessity. The quilt in my avatar was done with the Voyager. My DH (who is NOT handy!) and I put the frame together in an evening. You might also want to check out the Tin Lizzie, which is not as expensive as some of the other machines and it's owners seem to really like it.

Thanks kimv44 for the recent info. I did see more long arm set ups at the Sewing Expo a couple of weeks ago. The frames ARE really big. I wouldn't do anything bigger than a queen quilt. I'm still going to check out other long arms when I can. Not so sure I really want to put it in my dining room, but no basements down here in FL.

Good luck and happy quilting
