    It is a shame you are having second thoughts. I like my Brother best of all. However, I know how you must feel, as I am disappointed with another, more expensive machine that won't talk to the computer and the hasp is not recognised now...the solution suggested by the company is to pay more money to get an upgrade, which I am suspicious may not work either. Are you able to trade - in for a machine that suits you better?

And the storage is incredible...it holds 17 feet...bobbins and so much more. It has Three storage compartments. The built in Duel foot is awesome once you get use to it...(three or four times). I am soooo happy finally...and it has a free arm...what a journey...but worth it...
    I'm so happy for you!It's so much easier to work on a machine if you like it

    Please give it a chance. Watch the video again, try one thing at a time, have patience for one week, then take it back. You have to give things a chance. Remember your first quilt? Your first anything? Did you have sucess right off? If you did, you are a most unusual quilter. It is so frustrating to try new anything, machines are no different. Best of luck, you do have a very good machine there. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    Didn't get to the part where you found your Dream machine. So glad you are happy. May the days ahead be filled with beautiful creations.!!!

    Yay, Carolaug! I'm happy for you. There's a yahoo group for that machine. Seems like a helpful bunch.
