    Default Ken Quilt Longarm would you own one?

    I have happened up in a Ken Quilt 622 on a local estate auction. I have only used a HQ and don't know much about a Ken Quilt. My question is is this a good/ starter machine? I have talked to sewing machine repairman who is familiar with this particular machine and he states it is a solid machine older but very sound. Just would like some thoughts? Thanks for your input

    Take the word of the repairman.... I firmly believe that the older "solid" machines give the best stitches and will go on forever... If the price is right I'd jump on it..

    From what I understand, the Kenquilt company is no longer in business. If your machine needs parts, it will be difficult to find replacement parts. The foot also does not hop so it will push your quilt to the side and get hung up on seams. No sure about the frame system it runs on.
