It looks very much like my Bernina 1230, which I *love*. My only concern about the machine would be the age of the electronics on it. If the motherboard were to go out on my machine, for example, it would probably not be worthwhile to try to repair it. My machine cost in the neighborhood of $1500 new about 15 years ago.
I have a 1230 which is very dear to my heart. However, I have been told that Bernina is not making the motherboards anymore for the 1230 and I don't know what other older models. It seems there was a flood in the factory and it ruined some machines that they are not going to replace so they won't be manufacturing much for older machines. Bad news for me....I dearly love my 1230.
