I have two very expensive embroidery/quilting machines, but they sometimes get cranky. However, the machine I bought at WalMart for $80 seven years ago runs great. Besides which, if I'm not travelling with it I use it like a Sidewinder. It's not much more expensive than the $35 Sidewinder, performs the same function, and it sews too.
