Hi,
I have had a Babylock Ellure for about five years now and I sew on it almost daily.....at the quilt shop where I work part time. I have never had any repairs done to it, is easy to use and has lots of wonderful features!
Mine is not the Ellure Plus, so doesn't accept a thumb drive stick. I embroidered on it a lot when I first got it and have the Palette system with the card for design transfers.
I also have a Babylock Elegante 2 and the Babylock Symphony, which are my machines at home in my sewing room. I do all my embroidery on my home machines now.
I have made many a quilt on my Ellure and love it, I think you'd be very happy with one.

I have the Baby Lock Espire (now the Symphony) and would buy that machine again in a heartbeat. Baby Lock has a great warranty too if anything goes wrong. SOrry, don't know any specifics about the machine you are looking at.

I have the Babylock Ellure and it is my favorite machine. I was not brought up sewing and quilting. I am totally self-taught. This is so easy to do. It runs like a dream. Easy to clean & figure out problems. I am lucky to have a Babylock dealer close to me. Any problems I have had are ones I created. This is my 3rd Babylock.
