For sure, others are going to recommend other brands and you should consider everyone's comments before making your decision. If you get the chance to test-sew on a machine before buying it, that would be the best.
I don't recommend new Singer's either. The older ones are good, but not the new machines.
Good luck! :)
I just looked in the paper the other day and they had at a nice sewing machine dealers, machines for about $250, brand new. I would definitely go for something like that because they come with free classes and warranty and repair them as well. Jan
