| i gotta to ya'll this is one fantastic sewing machine......it came with all kinds of feet, is quite and well built.........i have been puttin it to the test for a year now and so far it has passed with flying colors......it has 122 stitch patterns two kinds of alphabets.......and 11 feet.........i think i have used about 8 of them so far.......it also has a walking foot........you can also put the stitches into memory(up to forty stitches will fit in the memory)i have pieced........done applique......quilted.........(great at free motion quilting).........and done tons of decorative stitch combinations.......and also it was made in japan.........oh here's another tip.......i found out a while back that 98 percent of all machines were made in asia........top quality is made in japan.......medium quality is made in tiawan.......poor quality is made in china........when buying a machine no matter what brand look on it to find the country it was made in.......many claim this technology or that.......but that is kinda misleading.......always look at origin of manufactering.......many companies are doing musical countries(this company buys it out....then transfers it to an asian company to make).....lol.........the machines are suffering for this too..........good luck all............donny |
