Don't let the fact that is is an older machine discourage you. My 930 is my favorite of all my Berninas. It is a workhorse. I am not familiar with your machine. Check around and find people that have that machine and talk to them. Have they had problems? Why is she selling the machine? Do your research. It is a Bernina, The older ones are like a John Deere tracker, with a little tune up and service they just keep running. Check on e bay. My dealer checks there when he is taking in a trade for price ideas.
