The Sequoia and frame set have exceeded my expectations.  From my initial queries through to placing my order, the team at wstands responded quickly and informatively.  Living in Australia, I had some queries and concerns about what packaging would be use.  The team assured me that packaging would protect my investment.  When my stand arrived I quickly realised the superior quality of both the stand and the packaging.  The stand and frame set came nestled in a thick precision cut foam which was both aesthetic and extremely functional.  I have now had two months use of the stand and frame, and it is such a pleasure to use.  The stand adjusts very quickly and easily with a solid lever to suit where you wish to sit – whether an upright chair or an armchair height.  (No more fiddling with wing nuts).  It is also a beautiful looking piece of furniture, but at the same time the simple lines are not too cumbersome, so that I can leave it set up in a formal area.  I highly recommend the Sequoia for anyone looking to invest in a quality, beautiful, yet perfectly functional embroidery stand.
