Over all I am pleased with this machine. It was a gift for a friend who I am teaching to sew. One thing I am disappointed in is their stitch description for straight stitches. It is very decieving & caused her a great deal of frustration & discouragement until I figured out why.
It is NOT accurate. They give 3 pictures on the machine with A1 A2 A3
The A1 photo shows a stitch that appears to be a nice stitch for regular work, when in reality it is a very tight stitch, barely moving the needle. When she tried to move use it the needle would jam down into the machine & she would need to wait for me to come back & take it out. This happened 3 times, I live 30 minutes away, so could not always come right back.
It is A2 that is your standard stitch, used for most items. The book does not explain it any better. Once we figured this out, all is fine & we are very happy with the machine.
Sometimes, shortcuts are NOT the better way. They need to take a few minutes & truly explain their machine accurately & in detail. There are a lot of people coming back to the old arts, Janome is a good machine. I have used mine for many years now. This is why I chose it as the brand to gift to my friend. I would recommend it again.
