8. Go to a local fabric/sewing machine store.
The machines sold at discount stores aren't reliable or easily serviced. The models sold at real sewing stores are better made, and often are packaged with classes for the beginner.

I have a few New Homes that I like (one I bought new and an old one I fixed) New Home is rebadged Janome. Viking/Husquevarna is also good. Low end Brother and Singer machines are junk. I also like the quality of my Pfaff serger, but I don't know if they make a entry-level priced sewing machine.
