I bought one but haven't used it yet because the last two quilts I finished are queen sized and I need larger poles. I'm chicken hearted anyway when it comes to new techniques. I'm the kind of person who has to put my toe in the water before getting all the way in and then I wonder why I was nervous about it in the first place!

I bought the kit without the rods since I had to pack it in a suitcase to take home with me on the plane. It has instruction on what to buy. I only hope that I can find what I need here (Switzerland). But since I had to take my machine in for annual servicing, I haven't used it yet. I sincerely hope that it works as promised.

I had purchased the frame a few years ago and have used it several times. I had no problems - it kept the layers at the right tension, I could finish a quilt in a short time and then put the frame away, giving me back my dining room table. I have since given it to a friend and bought a pinnacle from the Grace company

I had bought one used from a lady who was afraid of it. ... I was all hyped to try it out but she scared me off. They are hanging in the ceiling rafters of my basement. When and if I see the 400 series maybe I will give it a try.


Happy quilting.

I will be interested to hear what you think! Kathy B.

I'm just curious as to whether any others did!

I bought one and will be breaking it out tomorrow to practice!
