   I used a brother 2800 for years and loved it. but I am not a quilter and never used the walking foot. but it made terrific buttonholes and stitches and I only got rid of it when I went to a fancier machine.

   don't some machines come with built in featureus that eliminate the need for a walking foot when sewing multiple layers?

   Hi, Deb,

   I've sewn on three of the four you mention (not the Babylock model) and liked all three a lot. I, too, would have trouble choosing among them--though I don't think you can go wrong with any.  You may have to choose by which dealer you like best, or which machine has the decorative stitches you think you'll use most often, or price, or some other factor besides simply "quality." Any chance you can rig up a fake "quilt" to try sewing at the store?
