Brought my longarm machine in for some tension issues. The owner, Kevin, was so knowledgeable and helpful and was able to troubleshoot in no time at all. With his expertise, he was able to fix several issues and get my machine running again in tip top shape. Thank you, Kevin.

The only place to go for me. Family owned and operated, friendly & great service. We have purchased vacuum’s for our home and our business. They service everything they sell. No need to go to the box stores. You won’t be disappointed.

Bought multiple machines from here. Their communication is great and they always get right back to you. My toddler was having a meltdown while I was going through everything and one of the ladies that works there kept a her occupied and played with her to make the experience fun and not stressful.
