i have a kenmore 150, its an older machine now,about 7-8 yrs, old or so. i just love it. it wasn't real expensive around 900.00 and it has some embroidery built in stitches, ABC's etc: and other stuff, it also has a mirrow image...plus what i like best is the no sweat button hole, just drop your button in ,push a button, bingo. you have made your button hole.i keep thinking of getting a new one, but i can't find fault with this one, hope whatever you get it does you good,,,Wanda

Thanks ladies for all your input! Boy, this is really confusing. The only store near me that sells machines is Joann Fabric & they seem to carry Singers. I've never heard of Janome or Husqvarna Viking; & forgot about Pfaff & Kenmore. I don't do quilting; I mainly sew holiday craft items. I currently have a small machine that only does straight stitches & it can't handle heavy fabric from a pattern I started working on. Figured since I have to buy a new one, might as well get something that does a little embroidery for the holidays too.

I'm going to google all of the above manufacturers, try to compare them & see if I can find a local retailer. Wish me luck! lol
