Congratualtions. You will love it! I love Berninas and won't consider buying anything else. ( I have also owned a Kenmore, a Singer, and a Viking in the past). You got a very good price on that--especially since you also got a 1 year Warranty. I had a Bernina 440 that I bought for the stitch regulator. Then when I bought my long arm, I sold my 440 thinking I didn't need it since I didn't need the stitch regulator anymore. I then bought a Bernina 230, which I really like. But now, tomorrow, I am going to look at a used Bernina 430 (3 years old) and plan on buying it. I really miss my Bernina 440--especially for the walking foot use. It just worked wonderful when using the walking foot. I now intend to keep the 430 for my main machine and will use my Bernina 230 for my traveling machine (for classes and retreats.
I am excited to ge the 430--as I am sure you are. Have fun with it.
