@gosha I have a Baby Lock BL300 which has survived 30 years of frankly infrequent use. They're actually made by Brother, or at least used to be, and perform really well.

I agree with the other replies that say it's worth looking for a used machine to get started, but make sure you get one from a person you like and can rely on for advice, or a good local sewing shop. Don't do ebay or Goodwill.
