does anyone have this machine and do you like it

I don't have one, but that is my dream machine. Fell in love the first time I saw it.

I don't have it but several friends do. Big learning curve so I understand. Lots of things you can do with it.

I have had mine for a little over 2 years. LOVE it! Of course I feel let down now that they came out with the LE Edition...but I wouldn't give mine up. I got the quilt frame as a benny when I got mine. I'm in heaven. =)

I have had one for a few weeks now. Love it! I have the software, frame, and jumbo hoop with it. Now I just need to get DH to put the frame together!

I've had mine about 18 months. Love it. If you do a search here using the search feature above you'll probably have quite a few threads on it. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

I tell my wife all the time...if we had regular jobs...we'd have 2 830 limited editions at home!...instead we work at our shop 7 days a week!

Do you mean the original Bernie 830 made in the 1970s or the new, very expensive, fancy schmancy model?

I've sewn with the older 830 for years, have found and sold several to friends, and prefer it to almost any other machine ever.

Good question. I have the old one and love it! My aunt has the new one and though the cool little things you can do with it are neat, I still prefer the old less computerized one. They're cheaper to fix I'm told since there isn't as much computer in it
