"But my biggest complaint about it is that it's so light it scoots away from me constantly as I sew!" Get some of that Rubbermaid stuff that lines drawers. It is soft... and it holds the machine in place. I have a CS6000i also. I have been sewing on my machine for close to 5 years. Not a bit of problems with it. And if your bought your machine new, Sewnoma, it should last at least 25 years. It is warranted that long.
