Buying second hand Bernina Q24 - 3.5 million stitches? Or a new juki QVP?
Hi! I am new to this board and found it while googling Bernina and how many stitches can a Bernina q24 do? So happy to have found this... so I am looking to buy my first longarm. I have a small Pfaff and need more throat space. I found this Bernina Q24 it’s in a store and has been used to do quilts in the store and has also been rented out... it’s done 3.5 million stitches in 2.5 years. Is there anything I should be concerned about? How many stitches does a Bernina do in its lifetime? I am really beginning this journey and just trying to work out if it’s a good purchase or not? I would love any recommendations or thoughts on this as a viable purchase or would it be better to buy a new juki qvp for the same price?
Thanks so much!!
