It's a piece of junk
I bought this machine 4 years ago for $2,000 and it's the biggest consumer mistake I have made in all my many years. It was made in China and there are a huge number of negative reviews on this machine on the net. It is so widely distained that I cannot in good conscience sell it to anyone and no dealer will take it in trade. It just sits in it's box while I chug away on my Janome 6500.
