Oh, please don't think I'm made of money just because I said I have two Berninas, lol. In fact, my two cost less than your one machine. I learned early on to buy used Berninas. My 730 Record from the early 60's is still going strong and in excellent condition according to the technician and store owner. I purchased her in 94. Just this year I had the opportunity to buy a 1090 with many more bells and whistles, from the 90's. Likewise, she's in excellent condition and both provide me hours of reliable service and joy. Hence their slogan, "Nothing sews like a Bernina, nothing." Each to their own of course.
