I looked at rolling sewing machine totes for several years. I kept going back to the Tutto ones. I finally bought one a couple of years ago . Best money I have spent in a long time. Well made sturdy tote. It rolls like a dream. They also come in pretty colors. There are several different sizes. If I ever need another tote I would buy another Tutto. It has lots of pockets too.

Here's a black & yellow rolling case for you, Sew Freak:

it's sturdy and only $42. Looks like it will hold a fairly large machine, too. (18wx11dx22h)
it does need a little padding though.

Mindless....yes this is a nice case. I looked at this one and about 5 others...another one of my favs was a DeWalt. The problem however, was while it does measure 18" my Husqvarna is 19"
which however, would have been great for 2 of my other machines but I wanted one case for all....and if I'm not mistaken the molded wheels area on the inside of the case hindered on the inside. But that is a nice case. The DeWalt would not work for the H-V either. But they were the right color!!! I agree it would need a little padding but my Roughneck will have to have some padding or at least scraps of stiff insulation pieces to keep my machines secure....but I have either the foam pieces or fabric so I think it will be ok.

Sewingmachinesplus has the air sewing totes on sale this month. They have Tuto, Hemline and several other as well.
That said, I love my $25 Harbor Freight rolling tool bags.they will hold a 9” machine, then I still my project around the machine for padding. I have 3. 2 for sewing machines and one for my Go! Big.

Thanks for all the great replies. I will check Goodwill but I think you've all sold me on a Tutto. The 23" will fit my new machine (Bernina 740) but I can't tell if I can load from the top. I'm really not interested in trying to load from the side. Any advice? Thanks.

Go to your machine manual and check the specifications for your machine. Re measure the machine to make sure they are correct. There is a tote size chart on the website which shows the top opening measurement. Check that against the machine measurements.
Good Luck!
