Plan your setup

Home or studio

For a home setup, start with the room, delivery access and storage. A studio also needs to consider daily use, consistency across its machines and access to replacement parts.

At home

• Measure the space for practice and storage.
• Check assembled dimensions and, for folding models, the folded size.
• Check the machine’s weight and the instructions for moving it.

In a studio

Compare carriage height and adjustment controls across your shortlist. Ask the manufacturer about the model’s intended use, spare-parts support and maintenance requirements.
