Need Help Selecting Home Embroidery Machine

The company I work for is closing the embroidery department I work in. I have been considering retiring this next year since I will no longer have a job and finding something locally at my age will be difficult. However, I will need a part time job to supplement my SS since it isn't that much. I do all the digitizing for our company at the present, so would like to continue to digitize as I really enjoy that part of my job, but will no longer have a machine to test sew logos and refuse to send anything out before a test sew to insure good quality. So, my dilemma is the need for a home embroidery machine to do so. I have only used commercial machines which obviously are very pricey and have no clue as to what would be a good, relatively inexpensive home machine I could purchase to use for test designs. (Again, that budget thing). I will need it to accept embroidery files I digitize. My software allows me to save in many formats, including non-commercial type formats. I really need some suggestions as to what type of machines I should look at. I truly would appreciate any and all help on this. Thank you.
