Another very satisfied owner of a Juki 2200 QVP Mini and agree with Patrice that the 9" width + 6" height provides great visibility. I, too, own several other machines that range from older/mechanical to newer computerized. All of these machines have a place and a purpose so adding a straight stitch machine makes clear sense (to me!) The Juki is a strong workhorse that I would never get rid of.
When I bought the Juki (2017) I also went to the Brother shop and tried the 1500 but for some reason I just liked the Juki better - even though they are very, very similar machines. I elected to buy the 2200 vs the 2010 Juki because add'l presser feet were included and it made sense for me. I think there were some add'l little improvements in the 2200 but by now there must be one or two even newer models with more features. It's a never ending temptation. Find what suits you and go for it!
Good luck with your decision!
