I used the Passport and made a BOM that included small 1/2 sq. triangles. I also sewed some small triangles together from point to point. The fabrics moved through easily and didn't separate on the way through. Other than not bringing the manual and not figuring out how to thread the machine easily at first (LOL), once I did, it worked nicely. The machine runs quiet and smooth and has a powerful lamp, no problem with shadows or inadequate lighting. The machine has an 'auto' speed button (go/stop) that wasn't something I expected when I pressed the button. Not sure how likely I'll use it---it's fast! How do others use this feature?
The bobbin cover was difficult to get off and on, it may just be stiff for getting under the little tab till it's used more or I get used to it. The 'advanced needle threader' isn't comparable to being spoiled by the Babylock auto threader. Apparently most machines have this adv threader and people get used to it. I don't have depth perception, so it'll be my biggest challenge to use it as a convenience over trying to put the thread directly through the needle on my own.
I think 'operator limitations' are my only complaint. Other than that, I really like the machine!
