I love my Brother 1500 PS. It has needle up/down, pressure adjustment, pin feed, auto thread cutter, large high harp, knee lift, comes with all the extra feet and extension table. All mechanical, easy to take the housing off to clean and oil. I saw a brand new one at the dealer under $600 The dealer said not one of this machine has ever came back to her with problems. Odd she only keeps one out for floor model. She will say I have to order it and in the meantime steer the customer to the more expensive machines that they can take one home that day. I don't like that but it's the customer that chooses.
