I have the Brother Lauren Ashley NX 2000 which is the Symphony's twin, since Brother makes Babylock. I have had it for about a year and I love it. It has a lot of different stitches and comes with a lot of different feet. It is a very large machine, and very user friendly. You do have a wonderful man. My husband told me to just pick out the one I wanted, so I, too, am very lucky. Enjoy!
