this is such an excellent answer!
The last time I upgraded this is what I did and now asking someone
else to pick a machine for me is like sending them to buy my clothes
or shoes. I'm being funny but you have your own unique likes and
dislikes and need to find out what they are.
This thread may give you accessories/options to consider though.
Also, when you narrow down the brand, googling reviews on prices
might not be a bad idea.
Some dealers will sock it to ya and others are much more fair.
I'm not above buying gently used things either depending on what it is.
