    Most screens are like that unless you have a high dollar machine. My MC350e is a little better but still not a color screen.
    Here's another tip about the Brother PE770 and the Designio 820: They are exactly the same machine. The 820 is dressed up a bit but that's not why it costs more. The accessories it comes with that the 770 doesn't have make it worth the higher price. More hoops, thread, 3 or 4 different stabilizers, that stuff all adds up. The hoops alone cost more than the price difference between the two machines.

    Saving money is always great, no arguments there but I know that i would never have been enjoying my embroidery machine the way I am today were it not for the wonderful lessons at my dealers. I would make that a big consideration for whatever machine you choose.

    I have to say I really like my deal Allrands Brands sew & Vac. I can get information or hands on help, 6 days a week.
    Plus they work on machines, have class for new, or advance. To learn or make a project. I made a cute snow man
    pillow with the words f a song on it also. Can add lights if you wanted.
