Machine classes was squishie etiquette

Yikes, I hope it was Brother you had problems with and not Viking?
As Viking has policies in place to prevent that from happening. When I
worked at a Viking owned store , if you could not make the "scheduled"
classes ( do to work or other unavoidable issues) we *had* to give one
on one lessons when you could make it ( even if that meant bringing in
extra staff to cover the store )

beware about the classes. I got screwed. Signed up for the first, one

home, told me the woman that had sold me the machine was new and had
made a mistake and there were actually no classes offered on weekends,
which basically meant no classes at all for me.. (

Thanks so much for info on machines. The store that sells Viking and
Brother offer free lessons and tons of additional classes can be
purchased for specialty interests.
The Viking place always has a couple of women sewing on
machines everytime I've been there. So, I guess I'll choose between
Viking and Brother. I'm leaning toward Viking, any impute about machine
quilting on these brands will be greatly appreciated.
