The difference between "Floor Models" and "Used" machines

Legitimate retailers have limits on how low they can sell their 'new' machines.  MK Quilts can make you a special deal on our floor models with or without Pro-Stitcher.  MK Quilts currently runs a variety of machines on 4+ frames for active quilting of our customer quilts in the MK Quilts studio in Palm Harbor, Florida.  We offer these machines up after a few weeks of use for a $500 additional discount.  You get the full 5-year warranty from Handi Quilter and you get all of the perks that MK Quilts offers to its owners of new machines.  In many ways these are better than new as they have been tested and calibrated by quilting pros to be perfectly tuned prior to heading to your home.

Amara

Forte

We also have rare deals on Infinity 26-inch floor model machines.  The Amara and Forte are our biggest sellers.

The machines are professionally used and professionally serviced.  They will come with a new frame of your choice which will be delivered straight from Handi Quilter in Utah.  Contact us for details and availability.  727-935-1739 #3

Used Longarm Machines for Sale 

((See the individual machine listings below.))

Buy a used longarm from a retailer with an impeccable reputation for service and support.  Investing in a longarm - especially with a Pro-Stitcher computerized controller - is like buying a car.  If you can't afford a new one, you are better off buying from an honest dealer that you know will not close up shop and disappear.  MK Quilts can not guarantee that used systems will not breakdown.  However we can be there if it does.  Ask us about extended warranties.

Most commonly available machine:  Avante 18" with Pro-Stitcher
Common pricing:  $10,000 to $12,000 with new frame - depends on age and features
Many Babylock, Janome, and other longarms are built by Handi Quilter.  If they support Pro-Stitcher, that is the hint.

New Frames

Used machines can be shipped nationally.  Used frames are cost-prohibitive to ship in most cases.  New frames are ordered from Handi Quilter and delivered to you when purchasing most of our used machines.

Be treated like a New Machine Owner

Even our Used Machine Owners are treated like our New Machine Owners with support and benefits.  This includes a period of free membership to the MK Quilts University, store discounts on most accessories, and priority support.
