So am I - totally in love with my Bernina. I had the 1120 and now the 1230 which I purchased from Ebay. No, not cheap (over $1,000) but definitely one of the easiest to use with the least frustrations encourntere by some of the cheaper ones. I could have bought a new one for the money I spent, but having owned a Bernina, I will never consider any other.
