Congrats.....I have had my 6600 for five years and have loved every minute of it. It is a true work horse with no problems. My hubby wanted to know if I wanted to trade it in for the Horizon and after looking at the Horizon, I am sticking with my baby that I love love love. As you learn and do more with it you will discover over and over your love for it. Happy Sewing.....C.
