We asked Yvonne, our staff member of 15 years, why she chose to buy this machine for her own personal use:
"I like the square drive system and longer presser foot and feed dogs. The feeding of any fabric is brilliant, rarely do I use a walking foot because it's so good without it -
"The feed dogs come all the way up, fully coming into contact with the fabric at the start of the feed. They stay all the way up right to the end and then drop down to start again at the beginning of the next stitch. It's a fabulous system and I love this feature the most.
"The needle also has extra power for working through thick and layered fabrics, it's breezed through just about anything I've used it for.
"It's also quite generous with space to the right of the needle without being too big a machine for my sewing space -
"I also like the lock stitch button which is especially useful when I'm sewing a decorative stitch, all I have to do is touch it when the machine is stitching and it automatically finds the end of the pattern without my having to guess where it is."
With direct stitch selection you simply key in the stitch number you need and all the stitches are easily visible on the underside of the machine cover. It's really easy and there's a great choice of stitches -
