Top Amazon Reviews
(I've added some extra info at the end of my initial review...) There's still some features I have to try out but, so far, I'm very impressed with how well this little machine works. It was very easy to set up, is a total blessing for anyone w/limited space and the company CS is fabulous! I learned to sew on the very heavy steel machines and was very scared to consider an electric one so the foot pedal on this was a big part of my decision since I can't speed sew. I haven't found the battery pack yet, but that's also another perk along with how lightweight this is. Like some others, I don't understand the negative reviews. Even if one happens to turn out to be a dud or just doesn't meet your sewing needs, Amazon will refund within the 1st 30 days and the manufacturer offers a 1 yr warranty. It has a small piece of practise fabric and the stitches I got are all tight and straight. If you don't adjust the tension settings or change stitches part way through against the instructions, it's going to effect how the machine works and on the best of the industrial machines, cause needles to break and/or threads to snap. But, I don't consider this a machine for a child because it does have many functions beyond what a learner's machine can do. The bobbin winder, work area light, accessory drawer, sleeve arm, multi-stitch settings, thread cutter, reverse and metal bobbins, all indicate the possibilities of more advanced sewing. (It's not going to be able to handle making drapes or extreme fabrics, like leather but, what I'm doing is pacing myself as I "get back on the bike") Unless this machine can't handle regular spools of threads (I don't expect it to hold cone spools but the spool pin is adjustable for slightly larger (regular) size spools of threads) or things flat out go haywire, you're not going to find many, if any sewing machines with as many features that are portable, for this price. Additionally, if you're not needing to sew elaborate things, an elaborate priced machine that needs it's own room, is not for everyone. I'm pleasantly surprised but still cautious. I think it's a very cool machine but if you're a total novice or just getting back into sewing, I strongly recommend thoroughly reading everything before even plugging it in and learning the steps to protect both threads and needles during use. Accidents happen but, with any machine, it's easier to go in to it as prepared as you can so, especially for the novice, you know when you might be a missing a step vs the machine being broken. (It's always a good idea to have extra needles on hand for even the best of sewing times and know which style needles are the both the style & size for the fabric you're sewing (the wrong style needle will make it look like stitches are skipping and/or leave holes in your fabric (there's a super guide on google on sewing machine needle styles and sizes- This one comes w/an extra 90/14 size and will fit universal needles but, again, I don't think it's the best choice if you're wanting to sewing very heavy fabrics, like leather - I could be wrong - That is to say, if you decide to go with this one, you'll be glad if you pick up a pack of standard general purpose universal needles with it if you don't have any.)) The drawer is very small so you'll need a basket or box to hold your supplies. It's a nice add on for a spare bobbin, needles, etc. but, it's not going to hold much more. It's still a convenience especially if you have a lot of supplies to go through, to keep only those you need while your sewing one specific thing, right there. I like that it's sold through Amazon and hope to update this to 5*'s after I either finish my first piece or use Amazon's exchange/return and go one up. As it is, it has enough to meet my needs and seems a lot more stable than some of negative reviews suggest and more manufacturer support on their website, too! Honestly, for the price, after seeing this and knowing Amazon's policy and again, the warranty it comes with, I don't understand the severity behind some of the complaints, like it's a throw away item? Maybe 2nd hand or if not purchased on Amazon or out of warranty but, definitely, at this point, worth giving a fair chance for mild to mid-moderate sewing and alterations. (if you can hem one dress/pants with it, it's paid for itself) Whether it lasts, remains to be seen but overall, content to give it a try and no regrets. UPDATE It's still kicking & although, I hope, maybe down the road, to go one up, I wouldn't just part w/this machine. (it wasn't that hard to find the battery case & I LOVE the portability!) At this point, the machine has paid for itself if I had to pay someone else to alter some clothes & is holding up very well through some craft projects. I keep reading customers complaining about stitches skipping and thread bunching so I have to mention this again for anyone considering this machine....You MUST purchase needles to match the fabric you're working with. (ie - if you use one of the needles that come w/it(or a self-threading needle) on t-shirt fabric vs a non-stretch cotton, you're going to have problems with the thread and stitches. In this case, you need what is called a "stretch needle" - PLEASE visit schmetzneedles dot com - they have a reference chart for which needles to use w/specific fabrics! - you can also use an embroidery needle with one of the stitches to get a different looking stitch, though I'm still playing w/this, myself - The needle size for this machine is 90/14, which is a very easy size to find, ITH) Also, if you pull the fabric rather than let it run through the active stitching function, that will also cause problems. This is different than guiding your fabric, which is ok. But if you try to force your fabric to go faster by pulling it, the stitching speed can't function properly and you'll end up with jammed, bunched or broken thread and stitches. (The instructions don't tell you this but it would be like peddling a bike at one speed while trying to tug at the chain to make it go faster; it won't make the ride smoother and would likely cause the chain to slip the gears; you can only guide the bike. Similarly, on a sewing machine, if you have the right parts for it, you shouldn't have problems guiding vs pulling your fabric.) The only reason I would eventually go one up is for some extra style stitches although, I still haven't tried double needles and other work-arounds; I'm actually very amazed by how much this machine can do & though it can, I still have not (by personal preference) tried the presser foot adapter to use most of the presser feet it can work with. I've also since learned that Tivax manufacturers these for Singer, though I could tell when I first looked at the features and the signature metal bobbins, the design was incredibly close to the vintage steel Singer machines. I initially gave this machine 4*s and raised it to 5*s because of the many things in my initial review & it proving itself both on cost and over time. Curious about how much more it can do and still, no regrets. :)

The last time I used a sewing machine before receiving this was 20 years ago. I wanted to teach myself to sew, so that I don't have to rely on my mother or a tailor for some minor sewing. First let me begin by saying that the booklet that comes with this machine contains very little information. Within a few minutes of searching online, I was confident in trying my first beginner project. If you need a little help, YouTube is an excellent reference. You can actually see a sewing machine, listen, understand and follow what the person is doing which was a lot more helpful to me than reading the booklet that came with the machine. My experience: First, when I tried several stiches on the practice fabric, I had no issues with the machine at all. When I tried a different fabric/material, I had major issues such as the thread breaking and the fabric not feeding. I did my own, quick research online and realized that the needle size and tension matters depending on your fabric type. Quick fix, went to a store, got a package of several different sized universal needles. The package will tell you what size needle you should use for what type of fabric/material. As for the tension, I just played around with it. Second, if your are experienced with a sewing machine, perhaps this is not the machine for you. This machine is very basic. It has 8 stiches programmed into it, goes forward and reverse and winds bobins. Yep, that pretty much sums it up. Third, the foot plate is very lightweight and kinda small. I found that it was easier to use my barefoot to push on the petal and yes, I had to practice the pressure I was using. Fourth, while re-searching online, I found beginner projects that would test my ability to function with this machine. In the few weeks that I've had it, I have made; eye pillows, pillow covers, a tote bag, a small table cover and two pairs of yoga pants. These finished products are not exactly retail quality, but that is due to my inexperience and not the machine. Fifth, the machine is lightweight and small. It can easily be store on a shelf in a closet or even a tote where you can keep all of your sewing supplies in one spot and just take out the tote when you are ready to sew. Overall, for the price, you can't beat this machine if you are a beginner or just looking to do some simple projects. This machine would be fine for a person experienced with sewing as well, just keep in mind that it is just a basic sewing machine.
