Mpeters1200, I have 2 Brother embroidery-sewing machines. I also have a Pfaff embrodery-sewing machine. I use the Brothers every single day. Love them! I bought my step-daughter a Wal-Mart Brother on clearence...she absolutely loves it. They are a hard working machine...and easier to learn to embroider on than my Pfaff!!
Using the Brother got her (S-D) into quilting--because this machine made it so easy! I don't have a single complaint about them. Yes, the Wal-Mart machine is a "Basic" machine...but if you don't need 1000s of design...go for it. I do believe the basic Disney machine will take a design card...you can buy them with other designs. I find the Brother embroidery to be superior to my Pfaff.
