I was at a sewing store yesterday,which I won't name.
I saw a large hoop, looked like a 16 x 16 or there abouts. lol
Anyway, I ask about the prices of the two machines in front of me. One was 6500.00 and the other was the newest Viking out and it was around 10,000.00, which the large hoop belong to. Not me! For that price I will buy an industrial machine and a cheaper sewing machine for 500.00. My embroidery machine was 4,000.00 and I don't think it is worth that much money, but again, I don't think any of the machines are worth that much money anyway. If you are not going to do embroidery as a business, I would find one for around 600. Brothers are user friendly.
Syl Just my opinion.
