I had a Singer one time that filled the bobbin right in place rather than having to take it out to fill. I wish my Janomes had that feature. Someone said that Singer had the patent on that. I will be glad when the patent runs out so all companies could put that feature on their machines.

Actually back in the day they did have a machine that the bobbin thread came off a spool.

My Bl Elleago has a setting that can tell me how many stitches I have sewn. When it was brand new the lady showed me it had 0 stitches so i new it was a new machine & never used. I don't know if it can be reset. Maybe like a car.
