I have the Sapphire 870 and I love it.I have never had to play with the tension and you never have to oil a husqvarna either.

I have an 875Q and I love it, it's a fabulous machine, has so many great features, the thread cutter is so great to have, you never have to unthread your needle to wind a bobbin, auto tension, a walking foot that has attachments that clip on for 1/4" seams, stitch in the ditch and embroidery stitches. I recommend it highly. No negatives to report

I have Husquvarna D1 and love it.

I do have the 875... all pros and no cons !!! ok.... maybe an even bigger neck..but no matter what machine we buy, I think we always wish for a bigger neck :!: It is very easy to use - I love the needle threader and thread cutter... I bought the quarter inch foot with the guide and my seams are so much better... good luck :!:

I'm glad to hear all the pros. I have been thinking of buying a Saphire 875. I tried it at the shop and loved the features. :)

I have one and I really do not like it. I am shopping for a replacement and I am sending the Sapphire to my sister as her 15.00 yard sale machine has gone to the graveyard.

I am glad to hear all the good things about the Sapphire 875. I too am saving my money to buy a new machine and finally decided on this one.

I would be interested to hear why you don't the sapphire 875.

I have to second this one. The Horizon is a great machine.

I have the 870 and love it. It does everything just right
