I have a Topaz 30 which I believe replaced the Viking SE. I LOVE it for a lot of the same reasons as below. Love the fact the sensor foot lifts the foot. So convenient - don't know if I could sew without it lifting automatically. You do have the option of it not lifting.

Can't think of one think I hate
Open stock in 2007 4500.00 reg price was 7500...You can find them for around 2500-3000 since they don't make them anymore but do have upgraded models
Always wait for an "Open Stock" sale before paying full price.
Once you work on a Husqvarna I bet you don't bother with your other choices...They are the only one with the sensor foot and it's great on appliques and turning since you don't have manuelly lift a hinge inthe back of your machine...just lift your foot.
