Many quilters have more than one machine as the all purpose do everything machine hasn't been invented. If you can afford another machine, have the space for it and will use it, I'd buy it. I always have three machines set up and use the best one for the current sewing job. I am now debating about replacing my eight year old Janome 6500 with a Juki Exceed 600 as I've had an ongoing love/hate relationship with my Janome. I'm still debating but I'll probably do it as I spend a lot of time stitching for others and I need the best tools (at least that's my story!)
