A friend of mine has the 7550. It is exactly like my 7570 except it has no embroidery capabilities. She would not part with hers either. The only problem I have had with my 7570 was with the bobbin winder. But a friend of mine GAVE me the machine and it hadn't been used for a long time so it just needed my repairmen to give her some TLC. She works her wonders on my quilting now!!!
