Embroidery Machine
I currently use a PE770D embroidery machine and for the most part it meets my needs. But I find the lack of a better display screen when embroidering very frustrating. The PE770D is not in color so all you see really is a black blob and if the design is very detailed, it is difficult to tell exactly which part you are embroidering. So I am considering stepping up to another machine. My dealer says the next machine with that feature (color, detailed display of what is being embroidered), is the Dreammaker XL Innov-is VE2200 by Brother. Including the trade-in on my current machine, the cost will be about $4000. My question: does anyone know if this is a reasonable price? I tried to compare on line with SewVac and other places like that but they sell this machine only in their retail store, not on-line. One of the places indicated they had to sign an agreement with Brother in order to allow local stores to compete. Anyway, is $4000 a good price for the machine?
Thanks for any input.
