I have a Brother Dreammaker VE2200 which is about my 4th Brother embroidery machine. Each one has been traded up for a newer model. I love the Brother, it is has loads of user friendly helpful additions, they are majorly user friendly machines in all aspects of operation. I use Embird as my embroidery software, not for digitizing, there are enough professionals out there without my feeble attempts :-) most digitizers have free samples which are great to see how the designs stitch out, before purchasing. At the moment I am stitching out hexagon placemats, completely done in the hoop, they are brilliant. I purchased them from Kreative Kiwi Embroidery, absolutely brilliant, "In the Hoop Christmas Table Toppers".
This machine also handles Metallic threads brilliantly, have used some really cheap metallics, slowed the machine down to 350 rrp, was using a Superior Topstitch needle, it just stitched away, no problems.
