Great machine for the price December 29, 2008

Not perfect, but not as bad as the reviews make it sound December 28, 2008

I was really worried when I read all the negative reviews and wasn't sure if I was wasting my money on this one. Amazon doesn't allow half stars or I would have said 3.5 stars instead of 4, but the title is pretty much the review: it's not perfect, but it's not all that bad, either.
Some people mentioned that the machine doesn't work well for thick fabrics, but we got two quilts on this machine without any trouble. That's a cotton top, a thick cotton middle, and a cotton bottom, and while I was a little nervous that it wouldn't fit under the "foot" it did fine. We sewed flannel and felt, and they weren't a problem. Obviously, it does best on cotton. Haven't tried it on silks and satins yet.
I had trouble with the bobbin a lot, with the thread breaking, getting tangled, that kind of thing. But once I started pulling out 6 inches of thread before starting, the problem went away, so maybe it was just that I wasn't pulling enough thread and tension. I am still not sure why I was having so much difficulties.
I do really like the bobbin winder, though. I've been using the machine pretty much continually for three months now, and haven't seen any problems with the needle breaking.
Good sewing machine for learning to sew December 27, 2008
William A. Funkhouser (California)
I got this machine to help my 7 year old daughter learn to sew. It has been a great machine. The ability to control the machine at very slow speeds is not great. It tends to hum and then race forward. It isn't a problem for me, the parent, but my daughter lacks the control to deal with the faster speed. The controls are simple and only what is essential. The variety of stitches is just what she needs. It is easy to set up and thread. I haven't used the buttonholer yet and I noticed some machines use a "one step" buttonholer. I don't think the 4 steps this machine uses will be a problem, but if you plan to make a lot of buttonholes, this might be a consideration. We are very satisfied with this machine especially considering the reasonable price.
 tool compartment is poorly designed December 24, 2008
feedback for you
machine works well, but the tool compartment is very hard to remove. requires force to open it, which you'll need to do to access the bobbin. this has not gotten easier over time....
