Bernina Activa 240 Sewing Machine — 

I had the activa 220 when I first got a Bernina.  After 2 years I outgrew it and moved up to the 240. This machine is GREAT.  It comes with a true light so I dont need to have any extra lights in my sewing room, it comes with the free hand system so I can rise and lower my presser foot with my knee, it has 3 alphabets built into the machine, 99 stitches, mirror image, pattern end, easy to find quick reverse, and many more.  This machine makes excellent buttonholes, the classes are great (any company that will help you to understand your machine better, even when you are an expert sewer is great).  They do show you other feet available for your machine to make your sewing easier but you dont have to get them if you dont want to.  I have sewn on other brands and have not been satisfed when compared to my Bernina. I have sewn on Janome, Singer, Kenmore, and Baby lock and went back to Bernina, plus their warrenty cant be beat!
