This was my first time purchasing on overstock.com. I've been looking forward to an upgraded sewing machine for several months. I found this one on overstock and let me tell you, if it seems too good to be true - it probably is! I was very disappointed right from the start. I opened the box (all in tact and undamaged) I removed the machine and i noticed the seams weren't quite together on the right hand side. The turning knob on the right was off and the belt inside was loose and detatched. i placed the belt and the wheel on and started sewing. the first 5 minutes were great until it started jamming and the top thread would wrap around the bobbin. i stopped at this point and reboxed it and I'm now waiting for a return # to ship back. I was also disappointed in the plastic parts for such an expensive machine, the top plate and bobbin holder should be metal not plastic. it just didn't look as durable as i would hope. I must admit though the one thing i did like was the touch screen options and directions this made it quite easy to follow directions. Good luck to whoever purchases this machine - i hope I'm the only one who got a defected machine, so that you other sewers can enjoy it. For now I think I'll stick to my Janome - Patty B -
