Yes, indeed. The place where I could go for while-you-wait service on my Bernina is gone, and I had to wait about a month to have it fixed. (Have to say, though, that is the first time in 12 years it needed really serious service, knock on wood.) My backup machine isn't nearly as spiffy as a Viking, though.

I love my Bernina, but the Viking is also pretty good, now that it has been restored to like-new condition. For years I thought having two machines was unnecessary, but that was when there were more good local repair places that could fix a machine in only a few days. I originally planned to sell the Viking. But when I discovered the really good repair place I finally found was so popular there was a one-month wait, I realized I need two machines now. Even if the Bernina chugs happily along for years, having the backup machine makes me feel more secure.
