Default Ricoma, any thoughts??

Hey all,
I am looking for a single head machine to buy very soon. I have been to the classified section many times. I really like the Brother/Baby lock machine, however the sewing field seems to be to small for my needs. The Ricoma machine seems to be priced about the same, with a much larger sewing field. Question is, I cant find many reviews or testimonials to thier product. Any help, useage, feedback would be appreciated.
Matt

uh.... stay away....

i personally know several people who bought the machine and have had nothing but problems. from powerpacks to mother boards to circuit boards.... it seems to be electrical issues not mechanical. i am sure they will get them figured out at some point but right now i would not recommend buying it.

also, i have heard that they are not giving the support they promise.

use caution....
