I bought a Futura embroidery machine a few years ago and I would never do it again. It embroidered maybe a few dozen designs and then blew the bobbin case. A few more designs, another bobbin case. It spent a lot more time in the shop than it did actually embroidering.
My next embroidery machine is almost certain to be a Brother - probably that PE770 that you're looking at.
I have a houseful of vintage and antique Singers and I LOVE them, but it'll be a hot day in January before I buy another modern one. (And that goes for Vikings & Pfaffs, too - they're all one company, now.)
