Which is Better the APQS Freedom or Gammill Premier Plus

[Lorchen]

I am going to buy a longarm machine and can not decide on the APQS Freedom or the Gammill Premier Plus. Everyone in this area uses Gammills....
I am only going to use the machine for my quilts. I have no plans on be a professional quilter.
I would like your pros and cons.

I have had my Primier Plus for over a year and a half now and thoroughly enjoy it. I quilt for pay (I'm a guy by the way). If you can you should try both before making a purchase and see which one "feels" the best for you. Also, you need a dealer who will be there to answer questions and provide support when needed. My dealer let me "play" with a Gammill for about six hours before I made the decision to invest in the machine. Then there were free follow-up classes to ensure that you were comfortable with your new "baby."

Unlike some of the others, I chose my machine (APQS Millennium) site unseen. I made my decision based on several factors. I read and read and searched online in various groups and forums, and it seemed to me that the APQS owners were the happiest. Now that was simply my observation.

My next reason was the long warranty of the APQS machine, a full 8 years.

My last and least important reason was that an APQS road show happened to go through my area and I was able to get a killer deal!
