I can't help you with any of the machines you mentioned (I have a 153QE), but I can help you pinpoint your search results.
Go to Advanced Search up at the top of the page, click it.
Enter the name of the machine you want info on and
put it in quotation marks. That will keep the entire group of words together so you don't get just Bernina or just the number.
Make sure the drop down box says "Search Entire Posts".
Hit enter.
The result will be a list of threads that only have the exact phrase you typed in the box somewhere within a post.
Your keywords will be highlighted in yellow so you can skim quickly through the pages to catch every mention of the machine you are looking for.
Be aware that if you enter "Bernina 153QE" you will not get results that contain "Bernina 153 QE". They are exact matches only.
Hope that helps.
