Baby Lock was one of the manufacturers that I considered when buying my new machine (the other manufacturers were Janome and Bernina).
In case you don't know, Baby Lock is an American corporation. Brother manufactures the Baby Lock sewing machines. In many cases you can find a twin Baby Lock machine for a Brother machine e.g. Baby Lock Crescendo and Brother Dream Weaver. You will find that the Brother machines cost substantially less than the Baby Lock machines and are the same machine.
