When I bought my first non vintage machine I called the local community college and ask what they used for sewing classes and thats what I bought. I knew they would not use a machine that could be a problem to keep up especially with students learning to sew. I bought a Bernina activa 240, when I took the operation class from the dealer I bought the machine from I was the only one there with this basic machine. It has 100+ stitches, more than I really need. I do like sewing on it and I've had it for 7 years with no problems. I must admit I was down at the "end of the nose" of several people in the class. I did manage to meet a very sweet friend at the class and we remain good friends. Yes... her machine is higher end.
