Can you get a maintenance agreement or something on it? It might be worth the money.

Tk. u think I am going to take a chance with it, I have read great reviews on this model and like yourself the ppl. r very please with it. Glad to know someone on this board that has one and knows it works great. I have a Brother SQ-9000 and not please with it, jams a lot and noises. Tk. u have a good day.

Tk. u all for your opinions and have read a lot of reviews on this machine and they all seem to be good. I have a Brother SQ-9000 and not happy with it at all. Will be keeping it for backup if needed.
