Brother is a good cheap way to go.
Mine cost me $129 for the Brother XR65 made for quilting. It came with a walking foot, and even an extension table.
It is a little work horse. It has a bunch of fancy stitchs but have never used them.
This was over 5 years ago and never had to take it in for repairs.
The only thing it lacks is needle down and a long throat.
Later I added the H. Viking Shappire 830 with a 10 in. throat and needle down but it cost alot more and is computerized. It has been in the shop.
My Brother is my backup machine now for when the fancy one is in the shop or being stubborn about working.
