I have 5 HV machines, but I dearly love the SE, have the D1, Topaz30 (larger throat space) and the Designer Diamond. I have the embroidery modules for all of them, but only use the Diamond for embroidery. I keep the walking foot on the SE, the D1 is used for piecing. The Topaz is due for its annual checkup so not currently using it. I would have nothing but HVs now. Service has been excellent, and my dealer is just the best. The only issue I would have with buying used from Craigs List or any other used place is that if you do have a problem where do you take it. If you buy used from a dealer, it will have been serviced and cleaned, and you would get help with learning how to use it.
