I have a featherweight that I take to classes. Only does a straight stitch, but most classes only need straight stitching.
My husband said,"If you can't carry your machine down the flight of stairs and put it in the car, you don't need to be going to classes. Not very supportive!

Before those two purchases I wasn't taking classes due to the weight of my good machine.
Good luck
