    Default Bernina Activa 140

    I sold my 4Bernina 440QE and now I am selling my Bernina Activa 140. I bought it recently to use as my traveling/class machine, but I can't seem to get used to not having the NeedleUp/Needle Down button, The machine has the Needle Down function, but you use the heel of your foot on the foot pedal to use it and I am just not used to doing it that way.
    This machine Includes: User's Manual, Power Cable, Foot
    Control, Free Hand Presser foot lifter,
    Accessory box, and Hard Sided
    Carrying Case.
    Also includes: Presser foot #3 (Buttonhole foot)
    Presser foot #4 (Zipper foot)
    Presser foot #5 (Blind Stitch foot)
    Presser foot #20 (Open Embroidery foot)
    Presser foot #39 (Darning foot) This is an
    extra foot I am am including because the #1
    foot was mising when I purchased this
    machine. I didn't but miss that foot because I
    always use my #20 (Open Embroidery foot).
    Price: $350 (includes shipping).
    This machine has good tension and works just as good as the 440QE I had.

    I have reduced the price on this machine to $300 (includes shipping). I am trying to get it sold and out of my way before my daughter's Graduation.

    Is this machine still for sale?
    I am searching for it for such a long time niw.
    I had to sell my Activa 140 when I moved over here from Europe
    and want it back ever since.
    I have tried a few others, but none work for me.
    I would be in heaven if you still had it!!

    I am interested in purchasing this machine for my daughter. Do you know of any problems with the machine? Do you have the maintenance record (did the prior owner/s have it cleaned/serviced regularly).
