In a word NO save your money. Buy a small used machine from a reputable dealer - My sister had a couple of the last machine and it wasn't worth a dollar....never did work worth a hoot as the stitching pulled out in one wearing. There a good smaller machines and I suggest an older one as they are the work horses that will last you a good long time. Next time, perhaps post this on the Discussions page vice the Gallery as this is where they usually post just pictures......you will get a reasonable amount of response then I find. Budster
