I test sewed on every Janome, Brother, Juki, Pfaff, and Bernina at the dealers here. Every model in the shops. After a few months I made my decision. I bought the Eversewn Sparrow 30. Save myself thousands of dollars and I'm pleased as punch with this machine. All the other machines are super nice and great machines but the Sparrow has all the features I wanted. I have a Brother, Janome, Bernina, and Featherweight so I know how it compares. That saved money looks pretty good in the bank. LOL
