I got a great deal at Sears because they were about to introduce a new line.

I was amazed at how far they have come since the last time I had one. Everything is easier and I haven't even begun to explore all the features.

I did some research before I bought and found that Brother had the best consumer reviews overall.

What kind of sewing does your wife like to do?
