New Sewing Machine

Hey guys...this is my first time posting on here... i am looking for a new sewing machine. I have an ancient kenmore that must weigh 75 pounds and just has basic stitches. I'm looking for a good quality machine that has the basic stitches as well as does embroidery. I don't want to pay more then $500 dollars for one either. If anyone has suggestions it would be much appreciated!

I think you're best bet might be to do some research, find one you like, disregard the price for the moment and look it up on e-bay, I've found some promising ideas. But alas haven't had any success in gettting someone to buy me one, sadness.

Singers are usually good, and I was just at a bernina store and their machines look amazing, but pricier than you'd believe, cheapest machine in the store was around $700. Course that could just be their retail in store, decided per location price. Still, they seem uber sturdy and you might be able to hunt down a second hand barely used one somewhere.

Embroidery machines (good ones) are pricey, so good luck.
