Sewing machine troubles + CLOSED for commission quotes!

My sewing machine is giving me absolute hell right now. So I went and bought a new one... this new one can't even get a simple straight stitch right. I GIVE UP. I'll be returning this faulty new one and going hunting for a good Janome or Husqvarna on Sunday probably because this is driving me mad. All I want to do is sew a simple balaclava together so I can start a foam base for a head but both these sewing machines just outright refuse to cooperate no matter what I try.
I hate sinking money into expensive machinery that's going to break like this so often- it's ridiculous.
If anyone has any specific reccomendations on what machines to buy do let me know~ they need to be able to handle sewing stretchy lycra and the bulk of faux fur. And have a zig zag stitch. That's all I ask of it~
Ahhhh.
Okay, anyway. I'm now officially closed for fursuit commissison quotes~ I did get bombarded with emails so I haven't replied to everyone yet. Please be patient! I promise to get back to everyone by the end of today. There were so many lovely characters, it was extremely difficult to choose who to take on!
Forgive me if I didn't choose your character to work on! I wish I could do everyone I really do. I'm uncertain how long it will be before I open up again. I'm hoping for at least one more opening before the end of 2015.
Thanks so much for reading and supporting my work! It means a lot to me.

I wonder how long it'll take for it to get from Chicago to you :D
If you get mail on Saturdays maybe she'll get to you tomorrow! :DD
I'll probably be asleep if/when she gets to you because of timezones but as soon as I get up I'll be checking~
Do you need to clean it out/oil it regularly?
(though I am guessing if I haven't heard already I probably haven't since you seem like you've chosen)
And yeah that's how capitalism works unfortunately. If they make something that works well for a time but breaks easy, they'll make another sale when the person buys a new one because they have little to no choice OTL
