1.   Service after the sale is of utmost importance to the APQS family.  Both sales and technical staff are very knowledgeable about the machines and the industry in general and we are readily available by telephone or email to answer your questions and/or address any concerns.  Our mission is Quality and Excellence in both product and customer service.  When you become a member of the APQS family, that quality customer service comes with the machine you've purchased!

2. APQS sewing heads are totally American-made and hand-crafted in our own factory in Iowa using the finest grade aircraft aluminum.  The result is a machine that is almost 50 percent lighter in weight than the competitors' machines!

3. APQS machines are belt-driven for precision and dramatically reduced vibration. 
Belt-driven machines are easier to use and maintain than the gear-driven machines of our competitors.  The belt timing is extremely important for maintaining timing and precision for stitching in ALL directions.

4. Exclusive to APQS machines is the horizontal wheels that they glide on.
The wheels "cling" to the edges of the table and carriage and are fully adjustable for a customized glide and are made specifically for our machines.

5. A single disc-style tensioner for adjusting thread tension on the top allows you the freedom of using virtually any type of thread.  The disc-style tensioner is the simplest design available and will provide for worry-free tension adjustments.

6. The ergonomic, curved handles on the front of the machine allow for ease of operation and reduce fatigue in the wrists, arms, shoulders, etc. Visibility of the quilting surface is extraordinary! 
Function buttons are all on these handles for fingertip control.

7. Tables are height adjustable for operator comfort and a hydraulic lift is
available for purchase for pushbutton lifting of the table.  Front rollers on the table are set up above tabletop level for ease of loading the quilt and so the operator may sit on a stool at the front side of the table when doing intricate detail work on a quilt.

8. Other timesaving features available include Lower Thread Cutter,
exclusive to APQS, with pushbutton bobbin thread cutting; both vertical & horizontal electronic channel locks for straight-line quilting at the touch of a button, Motorized Feed for power fabric advance, just to name a few.

9. APQS offers a complete in-home setup service so our customer can relax and rest assured that their new machine will be set up properly and they'll be coached through some basic training by our factory technician.

10. To achieve the quality and excellence we strive for in these machines, the machines are built individually by our extremely skilled and infinitely talented craftspeople in our own factory in Carroll, Iowa.  Only the finest materials are used in our manufacturing process as each and every detail is attended to in order to ensure that every longarm machine born at our facility will meet the highest quality standards without compromise.
