After I started reading, the article sounded so familiar. I think I've seen a similar review a while back. Wonder how much sewing you would have to do to wear the gears down??
It's not necessarily the wearing of the gears that's the problem. It's the whole machine shaking and vibrating that contributes to noise and inaccurate sewing. I wouldn't buy one.

I've posted it before - way back when
