I have an Elna SU which is 33 years old and still going strong. I too am looking at a new machine but there are so many choices it's hard to decide.
|
Bernina for me.
|
Husqvarna Viking for me. Love my Sapphire.
|
Babylock is my favorite, I have a Symphoney and my brand new Ellisimo.
|
I have a janome 10001 and love it. I have an Elna 8000 love it also.
I have a National serger since 1994 works very well with no repairs, Baby lock Evolve serger, an Old Elna serger, a 1958 Singer Industrial model. it depends on your individual needs and how you feel when you test drive it. I spent 8 hrs in the store before I bought my Elna, I just wanted to make sure. LOL |
For over 40 yrs., I sewed on my Elna. Made all my children's clothes and anything else that needed to be sewed. It was never in a shop, nor did it ever need anything other than cleaning and oiling, which I did myself. Then about 7yrs. ago, I realized that newer machines did marvelous things and I bought a Computerized Kenmore made by Janome, it is awesome, just wish it had more throat space. Also have bought 2 FW's, and an old 127 and a 66 Singer treadles. Some day I will get the cabinet cleaned up and rust-free and I will put the 66 in it and enjoy treadling away. Guess I better get on it as next month I will be 79.

I only have two right now, only starting out. I have a Brother which works good, but I absolutely love my Husqarvarna Viking machine. I've used it for most of my sewing, and am just now learning to use the different stitches it has after about a yr. and a half.
