    Default Suggestions for embroidery only machine

    I have a brother PE 770 and really like it but want to upgrade to an embroidery only machine with more features such as larger hoop sizes and color screen. My budget is ~3-4000. I would love to hear which machines you all have and if you like them. Thank you!

    If you can wait a month or so Janome is coming out with a new embroidery machine, the MC500e. It has a large color screen and comes with 4 hoops, the largest being 8x11. I have both the MC200e and the MC350e and can't wait for this new one.

    I got a Babylock Spirit in May, in your price range. It comes with two hoops (5x7 and 7x12) and will soon have an upgrade to 8x8 and 8x12 hoops. It is very easy to use and is loaded with features. I love it! Betty
