I'm a brand new sewer, and within an hour of opening up this machine after receiving it very promptly in the mail, I was up and sewing! I made pillow covers(including buttons w/ buttonholes), hemmed several pairs of pants, and am starting on a quilt. This machine is extremely user friendly, has TONS of extremely wonderful features, and seems very durable. I absolutely love it! - M. Kim

Love it! It is so light to carry to classes or just around the house. It is very easy to use and the stitches are beautiful. I am so glad I choose this one over the more expensive ones I was considering. This has all of the stitches I will ever need. Good price. - Susan

Machine was really easy to use. Did not take me long to start using the machine. I do not usually sew and this is my first sewing machine. It has 3 different speeds besides the varying foot pedal. Very quiet when used. Well worth the money! - D. Farell

This has been the best purchase for my new quilting hobby. This machine is comparable to my heavier machine which I love, too. I was suprised on all of the features it has compared to my other machine. The extended sewing surface is a real plus. The variable speed feature, 60 different stitches I have tried out are enough for me to use at a quilt day camp. - Richard
