I have 2 of these and my mom has one and I have all kinds of accessories. As far as I am concerned, It's the best machine they ever made....LOVE IT!!!! Bought my first one in 2000 and I have a lot of hours on it. You won't regret it as long as someone has taken reasonable care with it. Good luck. I do need to add that I wish the embroidery area was bigger but I really do more quilts than embroidery.
