I don't know anything about that particular machine, but I have 5, yes 5 Husqvarna/Vikings; Viva (a cheaper one), a Topaz 30, Designer 1, Designer SE, and the Diamond. The Diamond and Topaz have the long throat, which is wonderful. I have the interchangeable walking foot; love that. My opinion is once you have had a Viking you will never want any other machine. The thread cutter, auto presser foot lowering, wonderful lighting, auto needle threader.
