I bought this machine a few years ago, while its a good machine for piecing quilts & basic sewing. When quilting your quilt if you do stopping the cover over the feed dogs has to be taped down or it moves. I have sewn through a couple of these. Recently trying to quilt my quilt there is trouble moving the quilt through it, the cover plate over the feed dogs is hindering it. It would be better if you could just drop the feed dogs completely.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

OUTSTANDING MACHINE!!!! Perfect right out of the box. I have been using mine non-stop since I got it & had no problems of any kind. The Patchwork also comes with a lot of pressure feet & other surprises. A true treasure!
I bought this in March my new hobby then as time went on the bobbin would clog up ,then the stitch would just loop after about 10 stitches I don’t have the nerves for this machine I’m going to upgrade to a better machine not a singer !! It’s at the shop now.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
