I agree with "mcwillia" that there is something fishy about the fact that the machine has only been used for 8 hours in the last 10 years. I paid $1000 for my used Janome and love it and have had it for about 10 years. I sew almost every day on it with no problems. Good luck to you and hope you get a good deal if you want that machine. Honestly, I have not heard of that sewing machine.
