Hi! Finding the "right" machine depends on what you want to use it for. Are you only needing it to piece quilts and then to quilt the sandwich? Or do you want a bunch of decorative stitches and computerized embroidery capabilities? There is a thread active today that might help you in some ways - it is about regretting a sewing machine purchase. Most of us will tell you that you really need to buy in a shop where you can test out the machine vs. buying one online, even if you save some money by purchasing online. Let us know what you are looking for and someone will chime in with suggestions.
