It has great reviews.

I have a saphire 830 sewing machine was kinda pricey but the depth of the throat is great if u are going to quilt on it u need one with a good throat. also watch out for the cheaper machines suggest u go to a sewing machine repair shop and get one that has been reconditioned by them with at least a one year parts and labor warrenty. the Janome, bernina, viking saphire, and now the babylock are all well known quilting/sewing machines.

and as the addage goes you get what u pay for. if you buy a cheapie you will be sorry.

yours in quilting
Chris
