I got it just before Xmas (MY Xmas presie to ME!!) and I love it!! I found the best price on Amazon.com (about $450.00) and NO sales tax and NO shipping!! That saved at least $50-$60.00!! I also got the extension table. If you have another Brother, the attachments fit both machines-although the 420 comes with walking foot and a whole slew of others! The only thing I use from my other Brother is my 1/4" foot, because I am use to it. I don't use the knee up/down lever all the time, except the few times I attempted to machine FMQ. What else do you want to know! I also LOVE the needle up/down feature!
