I, also, really like that it is Mechanical, and only a straight stitch. Amazon has 2 of these machines for $1,599 with a $500 coupon off that price.
Sold by a third party with not a lot of reviews (Fakespot rates the listing a "C" with 11 potential issues), not by Amazon.
Spend some time on the Juki Junkies Facebook page - you'll read a fair number of stories from people buying via Amazon and having issues with the machines. Gigi and team at Juki Junkies stand behind the machines they sell.
