The 7700 is an awesome machine is the financing would be the same, its the upgrade to the 6600. I have the 6600 and love it, but I'll tell you the 7700 is one sweet machine and if I had the extra $$$$ to trade up I'd do it. Besides having an 11" throat compared to the 9" mine has, it has a freearm for sewing, and a few neat new features to it.
