best machines for startups

You'll also want to ask about machine and software training and be concerned about the quality of the embroidery. Also, how well does the machine embroider hats? Is it easy to switch to hats? What is the resell value of the machine? Is there phone tech support? what parts are covered by the warranty? What type of parts does the machine have, plastic or metal? What type of technology does the machine use?

Don't buy a Brother 600. We did, and it works OK most of the time, but tech support is awful and fix-it guys are few and far between. Warranty is short, and its impossible to get ahold of anybody at the factory or even in sales.
We wouldn't do it again.
