    Hi Lynn, I just bought the 875 in April. I am still getting used to it, but I totally love it so far. I also have a Viking Lily 545 and I use it a lot for piecing - just because I am more familiar with it. But, I have done the past four quilt tops on the 875 and the machine quilts like a dream. The automatic tension is great and it has a lot of other nice features. I was so happy with the Lily that I didn't look for a different brand when I was looking for a machine with a bigger bed. Good luck with your decision.

    Thanks for everyone's input.

    I've been a little hesitant about purchasing a completely computerized machine, but I've loved it when I've used it in the store.
    I'm sure there will be a learning curve, but I really need a machine with a bigger bed...and WANT more features than I have now. The 875 has features I didn't even know existed. I guess I've been quilting in a cave with my old Singer. =)

    Thanks again for your help!
    I'll let you know what I decide..and post pics when I bring the new girl home. =)
