It sews beautifully. But I would have no idea how to use the bobbin winder or rethread it if it breaks.
I've probably threaded literally thousands of machines because I worked for Singer for a long time. Basically they all tread the same. across - down through the tension - back up - down - through the needle. Any and all "holes" that look like they are anywhere near the path of the thread just assume that the thread goes through the hole. the only tricky part can be which direction to thread the needle. Front to back? Right to left? Left to right? Take a photo of how it's threaded now so you can remember.

Same goes for the direction of the insertion of a new needle. Just remember which way the flat part faces.

Good luck with it and have fun.
