mid arm machine and (not sure of the brand) frame. Anybody have one? pro's/con's ??? I am gonna have to get rid of the sofa sleeper in my sewing room but think it will be worth it. We hardly EVER have company anyway! Comments, please !!!!

This is a very nice machine to use and since it is a straight stitch only machine there isn't much that can wrong with it. I would suggest that you ask to sew a little on it to make sure it doesn't have any tension issues. I have had one for a little over a year and do mostly simple meandering quilting, but I can whip off a lap or crib quilt in an afternoon unless something shiny catches my eye :)
I am sure that someday I will want a machine with more throat space but the Pfaff certainly is easier than wrestling it through my smaller machines.

I just purchased a used grand quilter and waiting for my grace frame to arrive. Will be my first experience with a frame so a little nervous and a lot excited! For now I'm using grand quilter and loving it. Any advice about frame and machine? Thanks.
I paid $499 for the refurbished grand quilter.
