I have a Tin Lizzie 18. Had a few learning curves My stitch regulator doesn't work but I found out my sisters grandson
dropped it and that was probably the problem. Didn't get it fixed ,just use manual. Thread was breaking but needed to lower the presser foot some. It does love glide thread. I also buy pre wound bobbins. It sews like a dream now. I have had it about 15 years.
