Hi, i looked into buying a Happy Machine, 12 thread single head commercial, fantastic machine, with a great reputation. I was soooo tempted, but couldnt justify the expense without knowing for sure I could generate an income of some kind with it. Everyone who I spoke too that has one loves it. Ruth

I have heard only good remarks about the Happy machine. But if you are buying a used one, be sure to find out the age and total number of hours and stitches it has on it. You do not want to invest several thousand dollars in someone's worn out one, when you could spend a bit more and get a new one with warranty. I have been looking for a good deal on a commercial machine for some time. I like the Happy, the SWF, and Brother machines.

Keep in mind, these big machines have a stitch counter on them, but it can be turned back to show that it has less stitches on it than it really has. I don't know what you're planning on paying for it, but find out as much as you can about it. What they say, and what is truth is two different things. I have a different brand, but I bought my 15 needle new, and I'm thankful that I didn't buy a used one. You also have to think about where you're going to get it serviced at. I have to take mine almost 450 mile to someone to service it if I need it. And it's very heavy, took 3 big guys to haul it into the house. Thanks to my husband he was able to replace the part I needed that was bad from the factory. My guy is one of those who can do, or fix just about anything. I'm very thankful to have him for many reasons! ;)
