no way!!! Bernina 830. I haven't had any problems with it...so far. I really haven't sewed on it that much. It will be 2 years old next month...or maybe 3..not sure. It's really complicated and I Just don't have the ambiition to really learn all there is about it. No if I had to do it over again I'd keep what I had. I was using a Baby Lock quilter's edition that was 8 or 9 years old and my vintage machines. I love my vintage the most. Most of them are just straight stitching and really that's mainly all I care about doing. Oh I do have the embroidery with the Bernina. My oldest granddaughter uses it!! LOL
