I like Berninas full stop. The older mechanical ones are the best (less to go wrong, so they're workhorses). And the buttonholes are good too (although better if you do the corded version, which are fabulos. ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume

Personally, I like the older Berninas{1990s or earlier} for buttonholes. They go in so nice and easy.  I have a 1000 I bought JUST for buttonholes on eBay. I also have a Brother 1500s, a Consew Industrial, a Pfaff 6122, a 1985 Necci, a Juki 622 serger and a Pfaff coverlock serger.   Jodi Nelson
