I didn't realize that although it might still be useful for me since I'm not terribly good with tension settings. Still, I'll make a note that it's only an average setting. I created a matrix between the 3 machines, and they are all very similar except for a couple of things. The Skyline has the auto tension and 1-step plate converter while the Brothers have custom stitch option and back to the beginning button.
