Bought one for 10 year old grand daughter to learn to sew and one for myself when my old machine had problems. Pretty simple to use. Except self needle-threading device. Can't figure it out. Whole thing missing on grand daughter's machine. Foot pedal is flimsy plastic. Slides all over the floor, away from my foot. Very annoying. Can't recommend machine just because of this feature.
Pros: smooth stitching
Cons: flimsy lightweight foot control slides all over
bobbin holder comes out of place every few minutes, have to take off the cover, take out the bobbin, take out the holder, take five mins to get it in properly , put bobbin back in, put cover back on, I don't even put the screws back as I have to do it so often
Cons: Difficult To Use, Limited Function, Not Durable
