I had a Brother CS5055PRW, and had it for 4 years before I sold it because my husband got me Brother XR9500 Project Runway Series for Mother's Day. I also have a Brother SE 425 Sewing/Embroidery Machine that I got myself as a Christmas present. Last but not least, I have an older Brother 2010, that I bought used from a lady in my area. The machine was very well kept. I've not had any problems whatsoever. I enjoy them all. Hope that helps!
