I have the Walmart machine that is not the lowest price but the next one up in price. I think it came with 35 stitches. I bought it in 2004, and took it cross country under a greyhound bus, (in a box padded by bath towels) from Texas to northern Washington state. It still works as good as the day I bought it. Unless you are worse that the gorillas who handle baggage for Greyhound, you will be happy with it. I have the model 5130. I also bought one of their way more expensive quilting machines. I spent so much for it, I will never put in in a car to go anywhere except possibly for service. Lol. I am very happy with the Brother brand, they have wonderful customer service too. I would say go for it. Good luck with whatever you chose.
