I tried to google "most purchased/re-purchased embroidery sewing machine by quilters" but nothing came up. I even tried to look for performance and feature ratings, but still nothing. The dealers all tell you theirs is the best and why.
Appreciate all your in put

Peggy I have a babylock esante 2 and love it! Also have a Babylock Elegante blg can upgrade it but am happy with the way it is ,,, my esante 2 had for 16 yrs and elgante for 4 yrs and all I can say it love them both,, the elegante I can leave the emboridery board on while regular sewing and fmq ,lateral sewing ect the lists can go on and on and it will tell u when thread is broken even on bobbine and self threader and cutter and even the designs u can use ur g-childrens to sign on screen and embroidery thiers names or whatever out u can get the gold pack warranty on them ,,, but it depend on what make u happy my dealer I have love them both u can test drive these machine and think it over before purchasing such expensive machine .. but I also love brother and what most doesn`t know babylock is brands of singer so test drive these machine and do what make you feel comfortable with and good luck on what you choose ..
