I bought this machine in May from Tuesday Morning & have enjoyed working on it so far. It was a BIG step up from my 35 year old White machine & has not given me any trouble since I've been working with it. I have been able to sew about 6 baby quilts on it & numerous small projects without any hitches. I also stitched a quickie quilt for my grandson using a patchwork fabric from JoAnne's with a fleece backing & didn't have any trouble going through all the layers. For the price, it's been a real blessing for me.
