    Happy for you. You will love it I'm sure and will be producing before you know it.

    Sew excited for you. I have an Elna I purchased in the mid 90's and have been sew very happy. It has only been in the shop once for repairs, as my SIL took apart the bobbin case and could not get it back together. That was not the machines fault.
    DH used it 2 days ago to repair a zipper, and its still wonderful.

    I have an Elna 2006 that I purchased at a garage sale this summer and really like it. I use it to go on quilting retreats, etc as my Janome 6600 Professional is quite heavy and is computerized so don't like to be moving it around. I love my Janome for all its bells and whistles but also love the Elna for its simplicity and how nice it sews and purrs. Enjoy yours.

    You are going to love that machine, I have a Excellence 740 Elna, it is a wonderful machine. This is my favorite machine to sew on. It is quiet and sews over anything any thickness I have put it through. Enjoy your new machine and I am proud for you,Happy sewing, Joy
