Carreen Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Thanks Dawn. You are the Best!! When I first got my machine, you were the best help a person could ask for. I guess I just knew you guys would be there and you weren't but i'll certainly be trying again,( but not too soon, I hope). Maybe when you sell a machine you could include a list of reps in that persons' area. Carreen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnie Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Originally posted by Carreen Maybe when you sell a machine you could include a list of reps in that persons' area. Carreen Maybe that wouldn't be a bad idea....however for those not aware or just don't know, we are each listed by state in the "Find A Dealer" portion of the Front Page of the website.... Click on that and the state you are looking in and our lovely mugs and all the telephone numbers are listed...as well as our addresses, mine has both my home number as well as my cell so I can't hide should anyone need me. Also if your not aware of how to get to the "MAIN/FRONT PAGE" in the first blue bar just under this APQS logo on this page there are the words "Back to:" and a little house icon....that will also take you to the main/front page.

Ferret Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Originally posted by gable428 Originally posted by kreacher Should'a got a Gammill. SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A NOLTING! Seriously though, it will get fixed. APQS is a good company. The welding is better on the APQS It's lighter too, and you can push the buttons with any digit you like without them breaking I actually quite like the Noltings, but some of the things the Gammil rep told me would curl your hair......hmm cheap perm anyone For all the troubles I've had with my machine I wouldn't swap it.

Quilt Happy Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I agree about "bad mouthing" if it is slander (which means it is untrue). If it is true, that is a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oireachtas Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Carol, so sorry you are having these problems with your machine, but from what I have read APQS really does stand behind their machines and will make it right. I have a Nolting Funquilter since I pretty much quilt for myself and just couldn't justify one of the big girls (it would have cut into my fabric buying funds!!). When I researched machines one thing that stood out to me was that Nolting and APQS seemed to be the machines where people raved on about the great after sale service. Personally, I wouldn't complain if the Quilting Fairy left a Nolting Pro, Millie, or A-1 Elite on my doorstep. And I know folks who love their Gammill's, but for some reason they are not comfortable for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSewSimple Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Completely ignore kreacher's posts altogether. He is somehow socially handicapped. He doesn't quilt, although he says his wife does. Usually his posts are off the wall and totally uncalled for. We have suggested etiquite books but apparently he has declined to invest in one. So just ignore and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quilt Happy Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 APQS is WITH THE PROGRAM!! Millie is FIXED and WONDERFUL the NEW TESTED circuit board I was sent worked. My Millie is no longer an Illie!! Hooray! I have renamed her after Penelope, the faithful waiting wife of Odysseus. Millie had to wait to begin her happy life and now she is called "Millie Penny" (get it ? Money Penny). Seriously now, my Millennium runs beautifully just like my dealer's whose Millie I loved after quilting 3 hours on her. I loaded my first real quilt, a charity one after practicing on muslin. The stitches with the stitch regulator after I adjusted the tension correctly were fantastic. My driving was wonky but in a few spots it looked kind of nice. Now it is practice, practice, practice. Worth every bit of any waiting and aggravation. And now ANYONE WHO GETS AN APQS MACHINE WILL NEVER NEVER HAVE THE PROBLEM I HAD, EVER AGAIN.
