I had the Bernina Artista 170 Quilting edition that would also embroider. I haven't heard the final repair costs, however, $500 for a circuit board (which I know that it least will have that) and the front of the machine also has damage that did not allow me to sew. So at this point, I think I did better to purchase a lighter model computer 3 series-380. I feel sure Jack will give me a credit and that should help.
