I have two Brothers and I LOVE them. I have one that does a 4 x 4 and the other that does a 5 x 7 design. I bought one for $600 and the other for $1000 (and got a free Madeira thread cabinet FULL of threads thrown in.) My smaller Innovis is a combo machine, so I can use it for sewing too. That makes it really nice for road trips (retreats, sew-ins, et cetera) because it is light weight.
