I have had mine over a year now and I have not experienced any problems. I made a clear vinyl one with the machine to use as a dust cover. You have plenty of fabric room so it doesn't roll up and be hard to manage. It may take a novice a little time but ultimately the short learning curve is worth the exceptional results. I would definitely give it a 5 rating.īeautiful stitches and wide array of choices. She had no trouble learning to use the sewing machine or the embroidery attachment and has made some adorable handbags to sell. I have used this machine machine many times now and taught my granddaughter who is 12 years old to use it. My only con for it is that it is bulky and takes up a lot of space. I also quickly do everyday repairs with it. I like to create unusual garments and my CE-250 helps me do it. I am an experienced seamstress and have created some adorable custom garments for little girls. You can use it for everyday tasks and after a short learning curve you will want to experiment with the embroidery work. This is a sewing machine with something for all sewers.beginners to experts. Color changes are done at various interval called for by the machine while in operation, this can be somewhat irritating at times but it gives you a great outcome so it is worth the effort. The machine tends to run a little slow if you have a large pattern to run. The machine does require you use a high quality polished thread for the best results, I have used other threads with some success, but the polished works much better for this machine.

The machine would be perfect for most home use and embroidery as well, it has many stitching patterns to choose from both for strength and visual enhancement. I was able to purchase a nice program for this but it was quite expensive. My only complaint with this machine is it does not come with the software to make your own patterns. It's comes with many preset patterns and there are more available online from many users in many places. Once you have the machine mastered it is a fairly easy to use and get great performance.

This machine had a couple of weeks learning curve to really get the hang of operating it smoothly and without snags and breaks.

I purchased this machine to do embroidery on out families clothing and towels.
