I have a Tapestry bag with wheels. I use it every Friday to go to my sewing class. I can fit machine and all my goodies inside. Best birthday present my 2nd D ever bought me. When it wears out , guess what my request will be? A lot of ladies at the craft shows take them to load all purchases in. Double use.

Thanks for sharing. I L*VE the double use purpose. I plan to use mines to bring my sewing stuff to work to do on my lunch break ;D *2U

I have this one from Joanns. I only used it once, for a class, but now it's just in the way. Maybe I should use it for storage. On the link, there are reviews you can read--some not too good :[

I have the one from Joanns. If you're transporting your machine, I would never be without it.

At my other house, we have about 5 steps in the garage to go up to get into the house. My machine and I both fell from the top. I was all banged up and thought for sure I had messed up my machine, WELL, it was just fine. I hate to see what it would have looked like if it hit the garage floor without the case. I'm sold on them.

By all means be sure it has wheels! Otherwise you'll just be carrying something heaverier than the machine was in the first place! BUT be sure your machine fits inside. My Viking SE was too big for the one from Joanns, but I did get an "off brand" one from my Viking dealer that will hold it...however it's tight! Be sure you can return it for your money back if your machine doesn't fit inside!

Definately the tote with wheels. I wouldn't be without mine. Mine also has handles so you can carry it but never have. :)

by gerryb 12 Oct 2009     

Mine does too, and my hubby has carried it down our steps for me by them! :-)

This is a good question and I hope you get the one you want!!!! This is the one I want ... I could use it now - but with Christmas coming, I can't spend anymore money on myself sooooooo, maybe Santa will bring it for me!! I have seen it on sale for as low as $149.00.

by mad14kt 13 Oct 2009     

Yes that is PRETTY! I have several things that I want for Christmas...what is a girl to do? LOL ;D *2U

I agree with Shirlene - I prefer the one on wheels. That is a great price - I would hate to tell you what I paid for mine from Viking. But, it has been well used when I was able to attend the classes. Make sure that it is sturdy enough to hold your machine. Mine also has the tote that hold the embroidery unit. Good luck, and I am sure that you will choose what is best for you.

Thanks for sharing. I am glad that I waited and didn't just buy anything on Saturday ;D *2U

by mops 13 Oct 2009     

I have the same Viking one, paid a lot but got the tot for the embroidery unit free. I've used the trolley a lot, but I put it in storage when not in use - my sewing room is filled to the brim as it is.

I prefer the one with wheels and a handle that is made of plastic, myself. Which do you prefer?

by mad14kt 12 Oct 2009     

Thanks, I see many pretty ones but I want one that won't tear up on me ;D *2U
