I have a Tin Lizzie 18 and love it. I bought it used from a seller an hour from my house. She had the machine serviced before I picked it up and everything was/still is perfect. Whatever machine you buy delivery or pick-up is an issue. I only considered machines within driving distance and we rented a small delivery van at Uhaul to move it. I've never regretted buying my Lizzie but you should check out all the different machine brands you can. Like anything else : different strokes for different folks.
