Or...I have an older Bernina that has been a workhorse! It's the 1008, just took it in for it's first trip to the "doctor" in fourteen years....the only problem I had was that the casing that holds the bobbin in broke a very small screw and I didn't have one to replace it with. Also had one of those straight pins with a white plastic head on it that got buried in the footfeed area...but it kept on going! Don't think that would happen on one of the newer ones...
