That is so awesome. You picked a great machine. Babylocks are so user friendly. I love mine.

you are correct. It is considered the high end "sewing only" machine for B/L. I love B/L machines and would never buy anything else but. They are so easy to use - the manuals are easy to understand - and it's good that you'll have a local shop for assistance.

As for the bouncing, other than the improper table, the higher end machines have a bigger motor which means more power.

Enjoy your new baby!!

I had the Quilter's Choice for almost 2 years and was perfectly happy with that one. Then while sewing for Project Linus at our local shop, I used the Esante and fell in love so I upgraded. In hind sight, I wish I would have kept the Quilter's Choice as my backup machine. Then I would have 2 good machines and the feet are interchangable. I have a simple Janome as my backup / class machine but then dealing with different feet, bobbins, etc.
