This floor stand is beautifully made, solid construction, and quality workmanship. I love how it slides under the chair or couch that I'm working at and makes hand quilting so comfortable to do. The swivel thingy that the hoop attaches to is wonderful, as it stays in the position that you put, yet easily turns when quilting in new location on the quilt. I own a big floor frame (Grace Company), but the one thing I never liked about it was the fact that I sometimes had to quilt uphill, away from me. I like to quilt toward my body and the hoop on my new floor frame allows me to do that. I love it! It's well worth the price. Those of us who are hand quilters know the time put into quality, handmade products. I truly appreciate the quality of Harry Barnett's lap hoops, floor frame and other products.

This is the best floor stand ever. Harry builds such wonderful products and they are the only ones I use for my quilting. The hoops and floor stand hold my quilts firmly and sturdily and I love that the base swivels. Am looking forward to buying more of Harry's products in the future.

I wasn't sure the price would be worth the investment but quilting with Barnett's laptop hoop on the hoop stand makes hand quilting so much easier. The craftsmanship and functionality of the hoop and stand is truly 5 stars.

The floor stand (as is everything)is very well built.
I am really happy with the finish (got the clear coat)
The video for set up was very helpful

Finally had time to try it out. Had just been admiring this stand. So smooth. Easy to use with the vented 14" hoop. Appreciate the workmanship!

Wasn't sure if I wanted to purchase the stand, or the hoop only. Very glad to have the stand. It is beautiful, very well constructed.

I didn't want to give up my living room for a traditional quilt frame, a queen size quilt in my lap was too hot and ended up being wadded up when I got up to do anything-then had to be unwadded to find my place. So I began a quest to find a quilt stand with a hoop mount. All I saw were flimsey and looked as if they would topple easily with a large quilt in them. And then I stumbled onto Barnett's Laptop Hoops website. I could tell the floor stand was a substantial piece that would not fall over. The 18" square hoop rotates a full 360 degrees and is height adjustable. I am 5'7" and at the highest setting it is perfect for me sitting in a swivel office chair. I ordered the golden oak and it is beautiful. Now I can quilt for a few minutes and get up and everything is right where i left off. I am so happy with the construction-no cheap materials used anywhere. This is the best purchase I have made in a long time-well-maybe the caddy I ordered is equally good.

I have my new floor stand and hoop loaded with my latest project in the living room. It easily slides under my chair for hand-stitching whenever I have a few minutes or more. The stand is beautifully crafted and easily adjusts in height for me to sit in various places according to the best light of the day. The overall design reflects smart engineering and simplicity of construction, making this a perfect addition to our Craftsman home.

As a beginner I have been struggling with perfecting the technique of hand quilting. Along with my "Aunt Becky" My new hoop and floor stand are the answers I have been looking for. My stitches are improving, becoming uniform and smaller each day. I love my Barnett products. Great quality and I loved the video showing how to put it together. Thank you Harry.

I am a new hand quilter. After ordering the 14 in square vented hoop and being amazed by the quality, I decided to go ahead and order the stand as well.
As another reviewer stated, the difference in having the stand is amazing! It is so much easier to quilt this way, since the height is adjustable. The magnets on the back of the hoop make it so easy to attach to the rotating top of the stand.
It helps you keep the correct posture while quilting, your back and neck will thank you!
Again, the craftsmanship is beautiful! This stand also looks great as a piece of furniture, without a quilt in it. The finish is smooth and beautifully stained.
I highly recommend this stand if you are planning on ordering one of Harry's hoops or already own one. It is definitely worth the price and will make your (quilting) life a lot easier!

I've found quilting a large piece very awkward and hot. SO I bit the bullet and ordered one of Harry's round 16" hoops. I love it because I can get my hand right in there to feel my needle without having to hold up a heavy quilt! BUT I'm only 5'2" and it was very large for the short length of my lap. SO once again I splurged and bought the stand. Oh my goodness, the difference that made. I love being able to turn the hoop in whatever direction I need too and let it stay from day to day on the stand. Right now I'm hand quilting a large, heavy t-shirt quilt but my next project is a small baby cross stitch quilt. I know Harry's stand will be versitile enough for most things I do. NOW practicallity aside, the work is beautiful. The cutting, the sanding, the staining is all excellant. I could not have spent my money in a better way. I'm 67 years old and this stand has made my quilting so much easier. I know I can pass the stand down to my daughters because it will be around much longer than I will! :)) Thanks Harry!!

The stand is beautiful! I can't wait to get a piece in it. The finish is so fine. The natural look is so rich. The stand was easy to assemble and looks great in the living room!!
