Total dream machine. I would have kept my 7700 but the first one I got was a lemon (changed out by the dealer no problem). The fact they are stopping production after just 2 years kind of freaked me out so because I know so many sewers who have had problems with the 7700 I traded it in for a 8900.
It probably wouldn't have crossed my mind to do so except a part fell off in mid-November and late-December they were still waiting for the part.

Total dream machine. One of the many things they Really got right was the O patchwork foot with the D95 stitch.

The first test 9 patch I made using the default setting came out dead on the money.
I think I made 8-10 before it hit it right on the 7700.

Did I say it is a dream machine yet?

With my trade in I paid 1999.00 for it and I feel like it is the machine I'll be buried with.
