I hardly ever see the name of my machine in this blog so here goes. BABY LOCK! I have two of them, love them both, have had the one for 3 years now. They are easy to use, sew beautifully, come with loads of attachments and are user friendly. My friend who also has Baby Lock machines is just like me - Always wondering if they are a well kept secret. At least consider looking at one. They are wonderful.
