no, but I love my little brother. They are good little machines despite what some people say. I have the XL3500i , had it for about 5 years, and I love mine. If I hadn't gotten my espire I would use it more frequently, but I had a XL-3010 that I gave away after 10years, but it still worked great. I think those are just from people that sew like 8 hours a day as a job. but if you are just sewing a few hours a day it should last you a long time, and if it doesn't it wasn't that expensive. I don't expect a 1000 dollar machine to last me a lifetime. a 1000 dollar one yes but not a hundred dollar one
