Default Husqvarna Sapphire

I just found out that Husqvarna has released a Sapphire 870 in Europe. I
don't know when it will be released here in the States.


It has what it calls "Selective Thread Cutter". I guess that means it's
automatic.


It has the mirror image mode. That's not something I use, but my friend is
going to be disappointed because she wanted it.


It has more stitches.


Hopefully my friend will be able to trade her 850 in.


Unless they made the new one weigh 5 pounds, I'm still not buying it.

I just checked the H/V site and the 850 does have the mirror function
even the 830 has the mirror function.

I'm trying to decide between the TOL Platinum or one of the Sapphires.
I've yet to try them out as DH is suggesting I wait till I've got an
actual sewing room (ie. after the extensions are finished) before
getting a new machine, unless the current machine dies before then.
