Dritz Quilter's Floor Frame, Adjustable, White

This thing went together easily, even for a mechanical idiot like me. I had it all snugged up and sturdy when I realized that the chrome button to adjust the legs wasn't visible on 3 of the 4 legs. Ugh. I took it all apart to find the button. But the foot of the leg slides out and the button readily appears and can be re-inserted properly. Would have been much easier. I am also having a hard time removing the covers, but I think that is a practice thing. Product was as stated and delivery was timely. I need to finish my quilt top to actually use it, so if this needs updating I'll do so then.Update: This frame is exactly what I needed! I always quilted on my lap before (without a hoop as it was clumsy for me). Now I don't have to rearrange the quilt after every few stitches, I can quilt in a comfortable position, and my stitches have greatly improved. Re-positioning the project is easy and quick. I'm still in the learning curve on positioning, but now I can move all the way around the project to get at it from the best angle. It goes much faster. It's easy to store between projects (we have a small house so that was essential). Now if I can just get the hang of the Aunt Becky thimble, I'll be all set.

My my my. What a delightful quilter's frame. Several years ago I purchased the hardware and instructions to have a traditional wooden frame made and well, it is still in the little plastic bag it came in. I LOVE quilting and I have had no access to a frame since I moved from Houston. This is a thing of beauty and it is VERY useful, inexpensive for what you get, and adjustable. I have it set up in my den and it is an attractive piece of furniture. It is easy to assemble, built well, easy to take apart to store and I am very grateful that I gave up on the wooden frame. This one will last forever and it is remarkably simple to operate! Congrats to Dritz for a design that is well done in all aspects. I received the box very quickly and as far as I can see-a dream for me! I would highly recommend this frame to serious quilters. You can set it up where it is the same height all around if you want to have help working on the quilt or you can angle it and pull it over to the recliner and work from that perspective by yourself. Do yourself a favor---if you have always wanted one---this is the way to go. No wooden splinters, no conditions under which the wooden frame might be less than ideal, no bulky and no complicated accoutrements that constantly arise when dealing with the traditional wood. This is a quilter's nirvana!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The frame arrived on time and was very easy to put together. As others have stated it could be a little sturdier. I put a small baby quilt on it just to see how it was going to do before I actually put the 100 year old quilt that I need to repair on it. I am a little concerned that it will do more damage to the family heirloom quilt than is already there. I do not have room in my home for a full-sized quilting frame so this will just have to do. I like that it can be taken apart with the quilt on it to eliminate too many removals and more damage in putting the quilt back on. Before I put the antique quilt on it I'm going to make some thin protective strips to put between the quilt and the clamps. If that doesn't work I may try to buy some other kind of clamp that won't damage the antique quilt. But I am happy with this purchase.

Great product for hand quilting

I always dreaded setting up my old wooden quilt frame because it was so large and I had to put it together with nuts and bolts. When i saw this pvc-pipe option by Dritz, I was a bit skeptical. I read all those positive reviews and wondered if those folks really knew what they were talking about. So I ordered it and am absolutely delighted! It took five minutes to put it together the first time - my five-year-old granddaughter "helped." No nuts, no bolts - just fit the pieces together. I had a quilt ready to quilt so I jumped in and had a great experience. My quilt was large, but that was no problem because it was so easy to snap off the plastic covers and move the quilt around. This frame takes up a lot less space than a traditional wooden frame, but it's still large enough for more than one person to work on the quilt at the same time. My first quilt on this frame had a puffy, wool batt and the frame worked great. The quilt I'm working on now has a low-loft cotton batt, but the frame is tight and holds it taut.Save the box - you can take this frame down between quilts and you'll need the box to keep the pieces together.

I really like this quilt frame. Hubby assembled it without much trouble. It exposes a nice chunk of quilt to work on, but doesn't take up much floor space. It is easy for me to remove the clamps and move to a new section. When I was considering purchasing the frame, I noticed several people mention that they wrapped tape on the legs before assembling, in order to keep the frame from coming apart. Did not do that on the pictured quilt, and it did indeed come apart if I knocked into it, or moved it. So before putting on my current quilt, we wrapped the legs with painters tape, just to give it a slightly tighter fit. Perfect! It has not come apart at all this time. I'm happy I bought it, would recommend.

Went together easily and is sturdy for the job it's made for, and easy to operate.
