I used a Babylock Presto in Paducah for a class this past week. I was not impressed with it and my friend who was also in the class was not either. Some people did like them and they sold several of the class machines, probably because they sold them for half price. Mine would basically stop sewing, I would have to turn it off and back on, and the foot pedal was not very responsive. I used the thread cutter and it caused the bobbin thread to come out of the bobbin tension unit. I'll stick with my Pfaff machines!
