Not what I expected.:

First, I bought this because it was described as having a drop in bobbin. It is not. The bobbim jambs unless you hold the threads as you start each seam. I have never had to do that with any of my other sewing machines. I sew a lot of heavy fabric and bought this machine for that reason, but save your money and get a better machine. The reverse button fell off after a weeks use. I was able to put it back on but that just shows the quality.
As for the free patterns...I was suprised at how fast they... more info

Great sewing machine!:

I had only used older Singers and a Kenmore of my Mothers' and took sewing in High School, many years ago.

Great machine, if you know about sewing machines!:

This is a great sewing machine if you know ABOUT sewing machines, meaning if you can adjust the thread tensions, foot pressure etc.

I used to own a sewing machine from SINGER and it had top-loading bobin, automatic tension adjustment, etc (which I did not know back then)... more info

save your money:

I did nothing but struggle with this machine. It was so fussy--it would break pretty much every time I used it. And there was no consistent problem. Sometimes it would freeze up, other times get jammed, other times chew up my fabric. Don't waste your time or money!
