I also have the Bernina 440, and I purchased an Innova longarm several years ago. I love the Innova, and if I had to choose again, that's what I would buy. But there are many different longarms, and what's right for me may not be what's best for you. It's a major purchase, so you should go to a quilt show where a lot of different machines are available for inspection. Play with them, ask questions, make a chart of features that are important to you, ask about getting training, and then make your decision.
