I agree, delay your purchase and keep sewing on your vintage machine as long as you can. You will feel like you upgraded with a quality machine such as a Bernina. If you can not wait, stay away from the singer. Look into getting a Brother from Costco. I have purchased two Brothers from Costco for my daughters and they are happy. You can't beat their return policy if you are not happy. The reason I told you to wait, is as much as my daughter loves her Brother sewing machine, she refuses to sew on my Bernina machine, as she feels she would notice the difference and not be content any longer. Smart girl. Be happy with what you have.
