I too have had brothers for years, am on my 3rd. Not because bad
machines, first was made in mid 1990s, still works like a dream;
second is a little 13 lb machine for travel, 4 x 4 emb field. Just got
a top of line, love it. Best thing about Brother, software always up
to date, support old machines (mine is 7500), and I can download free
designs, write to card and old machine can sew out. New machine works
with old card reader/writer through usb port. Design format very
common.
Babylock just as good though like my brother better then regular non
emb babylock machine I have. Like old Pfaff best for just sewing or
quilt block construction.
I also have a bernina embroidery since around 2002, since then spent
$$$ trying to keep software to put designs onto machine, hardware to
write to cards that did not work after latest OS. Never another
Benina, and my hubby is super geek, I am just geek. I bought my
netbook just to get desings to bernina as it does not like 64 bit
system all our other computers are. Company does not care about
support, just selling new more expensive machines to baby boomers.
Sews well, but getting designs to machine and the company's attitude
are the problems.
