more built in designs + disney designs. The White has no place to tell you how many stitches or hours it has run, but it does a beautiful job!

Thankfully you are able to finish up without waiting for yours out of the shop.

I only have 5 more projects that use a 4x4. All the others are 5x7 and I really need that machine to finish.

My wonderful machine was 7 years when I bought it. I have now had it nearly 3 years. Also only a 4x4. No USB and I also have to download on to a card. I would dearly love another machine but at my time of life I would not get the use out of it. My little machine purrs along and sews beautifully and it still looks brand new. My Bernina dealer tells me that it was one of the best machines Bernina ever made.

I've heard that Bernina is the top of the line... but I didn't try one before I bought the White and not sure which one came out first.
I would dearly love to have one of the top of the line Brothers but like you-- at my age I would never get the use of it, so I'll be happy if they fix my Brother.

Well, all's well that ends well and I'm glad you've reached a happy solution. I'm glad, too, that you introduced this topic because I've learnt a lot from reading all the messages and doing some hunting and research about machines in the last hour.

Yes, this machine will do for all the 4x4 but I have so many 5x7 that I need the other machine for and within the next month!
I think it is still under waranty so they will either fix it or give me another one!

Sometimes the older machines are better ones. If you find a good one. Sounds like you did.

I really think this little White is better built than the Brother..... but nothing is built to last anymore.
