Sewing Spaces and Furniture / Re: Anyone know of a good compact sewing machine? hines are there!

Thank you so for that.. I think I was expecting a bit much with the auto tension!
Thank you for taking the time to send the links. Maybe a smaller Juki would be the way to go. I love the Bernina 335 but it is my price range.
My gut instinct is to wait a while as there's been such a high demand for sewing machines, but when this virus passes maybe some folks will be selling their machines.
I'll still go through the links and do some homework. Thanks.

I've got a Juki Dx3 but find it a bit bulky for moving around. It can stay in one place but wondering if anyone can recommend or have any ideas on a good quality, more compact machine that's transportable (around the house).
I've got health problems so am either upstairs or downstairs but sold my little backup which I had downstairs, and now missing something there, to hand.
Don't really want to go for Juki again just because of the bulkiness of it. I sew every day, mainly clothing, heirloom work.
Must have a needle threader, good speed & ideally auto thread tension.
Any ideas welcome.

While out and about today I came across this nifty rechargeable mini vacuum cleaner, it now lives in my sewing nook in Thailand

I've got one that's a bit larger, plugged nearby so when I've finished sewing I can have a quick clean up ready for the next day. It's so useful.
