Viking Husqvarna Sapphire 850

I am about in tears tonight. I bought my Sapphire 850 a year ago and it has given me problems the entire year!
I've had it in the shop at least six times. They put in a "new motor head" and I still have had issues with it. The tension goes wacko constantly.
I spent over $1400.00 on this machine and I'm sooooo sorry. I should have bought a Bernina. My mom's Bernia has worked like a charm since 1960!
I took my Sapphire 850 back yesterday and told them how totally unhappy I am with it. They gave me a new one that had only been used on the floor as a demo model for a couple of weeks.
Tonight while sewing with it there was a "clunk" and there went the tension again. I've messed with it for an hour now and can't get the tension fixed. I give UP!
