Thread never breaks, sews smoothly and you can adjust the needle position for perfect 1/4 inch seams or any width seam you want. I hemmed 2 pair of jeans recently. Sews right thru denim. Making a quilt right now!
This is the first sewing machine I've ever owned and for a beginner I feel like it's a perfect machine! Very easy to set up and very easy to use! I am super pleased with this machine!
Bought machine to use for Dress a Girl workshop, it is easier to carry then my other machine. Im starting to get used to it. Wish the walking foot wasnt bulky and was smaller. Sews really nice
I like this machine. However, that bobbin is not easy to use. If you don't put it in exactly the way it should go your stitch is a mess. It can be very frustrating. I don't know why the manufacturers can't make an easier bobbin.
I have a hard time getting this machine to sew. It doesn't want to star or move forward to sew. Then, I used the Walking Foot the other day for thick fabric, and I had to push it through. I was using the heavy fabric needle, but it doesn't want to sew over 3 or 4 layers of fabric! Also, I have a hard time getting my fingers into the area to change the needle with that dime sized screwdriver! Very small area for changing a needle. My machine has been looked at by the Dealership in Eugene & they say, there is nothing wrong. I have been sewing for 60 years, so I know sewing machines, and this one is stubborn!
