I am getting ready to go out on my own and am researching single head, multi needle machines. There are so many choices. Can anyone give me a recommendation on a quality machine at a good value?

Look for what brand(Tajima or Barudan) do you have service in your area !
Re: recommended embroidery machine
I have a very lightly used Pantograms GS1501 that I will sell you. It seems to be a good machine, my business needs have changed and I'm looking to get rid of it. Reply back with your email address if your interested and ill send you pics
Re: recommended embroidery machine
I've been happy with my Tajimas. I've had one since 2002. Support has been OK but with a good machine and training you shouldn't need too much help.

Re: recommended embroidery machine
Only Tajima!
I'm Tajima owner for 12 years (have 2 single head machines) - works day and night. Superior
support. The best quality!
I have 2 Ricoma machines - it is nothing.
Also I have 4 head SWF machine. Good machine - but the worst support I've ever seen...
Re: recommended embroidery machine
I have seen both Barudan and Tajima new models barudan BEKY model and Tajima Tmar type 2 both are outstanding machine but tajimas is more expensive and you cant beat barudan performance and value. any of them will be a good investment make sure you have a local or close to you technician.
Re: recommended embroidery machine
I only outsource the customized items I sell. Now, I'm thinking of having my own embroidery machine. I guess I will consider what Fura! said. :)
