What machine to buy?
#13
If I were you I'd go to the nearest sewing machine dealer(s).
Tell them what features you want and how much you want to spend
then test drive as many as you can.
BTW, the latest Janomes have great lighting.

I'm going to look into this one. I've been considering buying a "travel" machine and to have an inexpensive backup when my Babylock's in the shop.

I love my Elna Excellence 720 but I also liked the Viking Emerald I tried. I always recommend purchasing a machine from a nearby dealer and getting the most machine your $$ can buy, whatever that might be. It is nice to have a back up machine and, if I didn't have an elderly Viking 100, I would get a FW for that purpose.

I have the Eversewn sparrow 30. I love it. I bought it from a quilt shop but it's a little cheaper on Amazon. You don't need lessons or anything so I would buy it from Amazon unless a quilt shop near you has it. I read up on Eversewn and was very surprised it is made using the same engineering as Bernina as one of the family owners of Bernina is manufacturing them.
