The Viking mega quilter has all of these features; plus super fast and I never have problems with the tension on it. They have tow but the 9in throat one is in your price range. It's a great machine, very heavy duty. You might be able to find them on sale cheaper since they aren't making this one anymore. I was tempted to use it as a trade in when I bought my Ruby but at that time I wasn't sure how the Ruby would do. I'm making my final decision on selling it after I take a class in June using the Ruby FMQ and more. You can't go wrong with a Viking, I have 3 and that's the only reason I'm thinking of selling my Mega quilter if my Ruby will do the job as well. I'm on a fixed budget so it would come in handy to sell it but only if I have something else that will do the job as well. Good luck on your search. You should be able to find several under or around 1000 that will fit your needs.
