I would save a little bit more money and get a Bernina. I have had a Bernina for 39 years. (different models) They are absolutely the best!! You have almost enough now for a 440, this is a great machine. It has the BSR (stitch regulated foot) that is absolutely fabulous for freemotion quilting. There are alot of machines out there, but I would not hesitate buying another Bernina. In fact I just did!! I got the 820. What a dream machine. But thats another story. Have fun hunting.
