Commercial Machine

Hi - I am looking to purchase a new commercial embroidery machine and have looked at Melco, Avance and Barudan. All the sales reps have been very helpful but I just dont know how to decide on the best machine. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

Barudan has the best reputation. Tajima is also good. Check into available training (on the machine and software) and repair. How far (expensive) is the nearest technician for each machine? You may find someone who will work on all three brands so that won't make a difference. Have you see and heard the machines run?

I deal in used equipment and work on all brands, I worked for tajima as a tech and I trained on Barudan in the factory 30 years ago and over the years I still favour Barudan for reliability,sew quality and engineering .
