Bought for granddaughter. Great starting machine.

My granddaughter turned 8. She loved this sewing machine as her gift. She has made dogs toys and I used it to sew a shirt. Great for a beginner!

I realize this was going to be on the rickety side , but I expected it to at least work. Maybe not A fancy double stitching, zig zag, button hole, write my name in calligraphy thread Or even go back wards . I did however, expect it to at least sew a single line.I hope you don't.I suppose it can be considered a "learning tool" in the sense that you can spend 5-6 hours repeatedly threading, adjusting tension, pulling knotted thread out of bobber area and many other troubles of sewing you may feel you need practice dealing with or learning.I'm not a stupid person. The machine is threaded correctly. It just cannot sew longer than a couple inches and it just quirks out. Besides thread breaking, tension issues causing loopy loose stitches, some how it actually rethreaded itself with the end of the long start I had. This will baffle me for ever.If sewing isn't your true objective. Unfortunately, mine was I was making my granddaughter a very simple pillowcase. This won't be for you. I could not complete it. I figure 3 days 4-6 hours every day trying to make the machine work, and it would, for 2-3 inches worth of sewing. Then, you get another 35 mins restringing the junk.So if you need a hard lesson with no reward on threading a machine then this is for you.The directions are clear.Except about the tension and Im sure that's where the issues lie.Personally, I'm going to enjoy putting this junk in to some sort of launching equipment and watch it smash to a million pieces.I suggest you spend 10 extra bucks and get something else. I'd ask for refund but I feel my 19 dollars would be better spent destroying the thing preventing someone else the aggravation and me relief from a seamstress rage.It did come with a selection of cheap thread.No hope there, I tried different thread as well.. Seriously, just buy something else.

La compré como regalo de Navidad para mi nieta de 9 años aprenda a coser. Trabaja como una máquina normal. Se usa con corriente eléctrica o con baterías. Trajo todos los accesorios, hasta retazos de tela. Hasta yo la he usado para hacer arreglos sencillos como ruedos o reparaciones sencillas. Mi nieta aún le tiene un poco de cuidado por temor a la aguja, aunque tiene una cubierta protegiendo de accidente con la aguja.

Great!

Purchased this for a preteen loved that every thing needed was included so I can only hope she falls in love with sewing

When I turned the machine on to test it out it was set on fast and it’s a good thing my finger wasn’t by the needle. There’s very little control when it’s on. Even on slow it moves quickly. The little piece of fabric that came with it pretty much flew off the edge and the thread got tangled. If you have kids that are going to use it, be sure to test it out first and make sure it’s on slow speed before turning it on. There’s not much control like with a regular machine. Also have a long enough piece of fabric so you have enough time to maneuver if it’s too fast. There’s no reverse so if the fabric travels too fast and the stitching goes off the edge it’s going to be tough to turn the fabric to backtrack and you may end up with tangles. I bought this for crafts only. Without reverse it’s a little to maneuver, but for small items like sachets it’s adequate. Haven’t changed thread on it yet. The thread is cheap quality but adequate for small projects.

Sewing machine was well made and good quality. The finger guard is key. Would definitely recommend!
