Well my local dealer only carries the 2013. He is willing to trade in with my magnolia as well. The auto tension would be a big help cuz I am clueless about tension. It's something I'm learning as I go.
I might actually pack up my miss monster and head over and check out what they have. Thankfully my janome dealer isn't a turd about me having my toddler in the store. Probably cuz he sees dollar signs when I walk in lol.
