As someone who sews, i would say get something a bit bigger and better quality. You dont want to be changing machines every year. Yes, You want something small, but invest in one good enough to last a few years. And take quite a beating.

This type looks like what you would buy a child who isnt quite sure if they will take up sewing as a gift.

As a crafter, i would suggest you go for one of the basic entry level models of janome, singer, brother, toyota or husquvana just to name a few. Janome particularly have some at good prices.

I bought a small singer, and to be honest i now wish i had bought something larger. It has its limitations but 5 years of some very heavy use, its still ticking alright.

Cc. Dtphilosopher: dont take offence, i am not trying to spoil your market, this is just my honest opinion. If you want to market to crafters you need to get products that will appeal to them.
