Does anyone know about the Air Ease hoop for the Viking Husqvarna machine. One is on sale this weekend and wonder if it was so much better ???

They are on sale this weekend at my JoAnn Viking center in the store...in Californis .I would think that it would be the same everywhere

Not sure where it is on sale, but the best price I have seen is $179. Not sure if it is worth that price since I have not used it.

Where is it on sale? I'd like to buy one!

I was considering it also. It is a good price. A while back they had it for $79.

I don't know, BUT go to www.sewmuch4retirement.com and sign up and ask the question! That lady is a fountain of information! Can bet she has one!! I have looked at it as it looks like it would be much easier for arthritic hands. But can't tell you anything! Sorry.

Thank you

I have never heard about a hoop that you mention, sorry I cannot help you. I bring this back on the top so that somebody can help you. Good luck

Only thing I know is what I read at the Viking site. Quote: Your Air Ease Hoop gives the best hooping results ever. Even the most delicate and thin fabrics, like velvet, organza and silk-satin are quickly and gently set in place and made taut in the Air Ease Hoop, without leaving any pressure marks on the fabric. The hoop is easily inflated with the included foot pedal, leaving both hands free for handling the fabric.
Unquote. No idea how sturdy it is, if it's as good to use as they say. Sorry I can't help you.
