:) I love my kenmore.It is a workhorse. It is basically a janome but does more. I bought the cheapest computerized one with about 50 or sixty built in stitches a a needle threadler . As far as I'm concerned it is the workhorse of the industry. But I'\ve only been sewing and quilting for about three years. I have two other machinesa lower priced Janome that does't do musch but still is an excellent machine and an embroidery beginning of the line janome.
Go for which ever machine is the best buy for your need s and pcketbook.
