Check out the Brother PQ-1500S at All Brands, it was 600.00 a couple of weeks ago w/free shipping. it has an extension table,thread cutter, drops feed dogs - four settings, thread cutter, about 9" harp/throat. It is straight stitch only, goes high speed for FMQ, has FMQ,1/4" , a couple of others and walking feet. Can't beat it, others have said Juki makes it and also Baby Lock machines. Best price of any of the above machines. It has to be oiled, has very good manual for it's care. Good luck.
