Bernina
The expensive answer, and often the right one
Bernina machines cost a great deal and are built to be repaired rather than replaced. They are largely sold through dealers rather than through Amazon, which is why this site covers the bernette line in more depth. If you have a Bernina dealer within reach and a long horizon, they are worth the conversation.
In short. Not a machine you buy online on a Tuesday evening. That is rather the point.
