I bought a Brother XSR-4040 and really like it. It was $69 on ebay. It is really light, but sews like a heavy machine. I think wawak sells it or similar models very cheap! The only drawback to my model is I have to hand crank to bring the needle to the proper position to start the next piece. I put a mark on the hand wheel so it's not a big deal. On my Janome it automatically returns itself to the proper starting position.

The nice thing is the Brother and Janome feet are interchangeable.

I just looked and wawak has Brother CS5055PRW 50 Stitch computerized sewing machine is a Project Runway Limited Edition machine for $138, free shipping! They have great customer service.
