I have had one for 3yrs & really like it. Have a little trouble getting the hoop on sometimes & pic on screen are sometimes hard to figure out. Embroiderys very well & instruction are pretty odd. I like the USP port & can use Vikant card also. I had white 400 which used the cards but only 4x4. It tells you when bobbin is about to run out, cuts the thread & has needle threader. For the price with USB port I think they are good buy. Mine was a refurbished on at that.
