I don't think you will have any problems....I have had so many machines in my 45 years of sewing. 12 years ago I bought my 1st Bernina..I told the salesman if he had a machine I could not wear out, I could by it..so I came home with a 175 with embroidery. Then I bought a 135 to take to classes, then a serger, and now I have a 635. Never any trouble with any of them.
