It's a computerized machine and has tons of programmed designs already in it. It also has tons of fancy stitches and many information pages you can access on the screen. It has a stitch counter that denotes how many stitches you've made since it was first used and it also keeps track of how many stitches you've done since it was last serviced. It also has a feature that allows you to go back to where you left off. So, if you were in the middle of, say a 70,000 stitch piece and had to stop, you can turn it off and then go back to where you stopped and start right up.
I have used it hard and done all the inventory for three large trade shows. I've taken it all over the country with me when I travel
and it just keeps turning out beautiful stuff.
