Cecilia, the stitch is perfect and the needle makes an incredibly satisfying sound when it enters the fabric. It is very strong and has been able to punch through everything (so far). I avoided using mine (because it was tan) until the 66 was unable to stitch a belt onto a pair of old jeans. Got out the 201 and the job was done very easily and quickly. My hero! I was hooked (so to speak).
