I bought a Singer XL1000 which was also the top of the line at the time I bought it. I LOVE the Singer as far as embroidery goes but I never use it for regular sewing because I have the Husq for that. The Singer is used solely for embroidery.
Both machines have a ton of built in stitches and both sew beautifully. I am hoping to buy a new singer in the near future -- if my harness sales continue to go well.  I priced a new Singer XL6000 with software and accessories for right at 4,000. The beauty of the Singer XL6000 is that it is upgradeable and has a continuous embroidery hoop for doing long narrow designs.
Hope this helps |
I know what you mean about the embroidery. I actually change to Bernina and then Viking came out with the new one almost two years ago. My mom brought one to me to demo and I gave her a check instead of the machine. LOL
