I have the BL Unity - and I love her, but wish I had gone with the dealer across the bridge-they have great classes for their customers- mine does "individual sessions as you need them" which means the instructor looking at you and asking "what do you need to know? Or what's the problem?" So check out what they mean by "free classes" before you buy-I'm spending a lot of "trying to figure it out and trial & error time". That said I love my Unity (would upgrade to Destiny in a heartbeat if I could afford it but with the other dealer!) and my BL Elizabeth that travels to classes and is my back up when I have an embroidery project on Uni.
